People hanging out in town squares in their underpants acting goofy

lastango

All over Davon's Watch (and similar towns in other factions) I see mobs of people hanging out doing strange emotes... usually in their underwear....

What exactly does this level up?

...and the werewolf shrines... I see similar activity there.

how does this work?

I went out to the werewolf shrine... waiting for the full moon... trying to contract the werewolf virus for free... and it was mobbed with people like some sort of camelot/twilight rave... negotiating prices for bites and nibbles etc...

I think it levels your exotic dance skill tree....

The shrine is where you need to go to get a bite from a WW player. The NPC's that bite aren't ever in that location. There's random spawn points they show up when it's the full moon. You can google to see where the spawn points are for your faction.

DenMoria

Noticed that all over the place as well (not the werewolf thing, never been to a werewolf shrine).

People just hanging out all over the place in nothing but their small clothes.

Of course, I only see it on the NA Server, so maybe Americans are a kinky bunch?

Athas24

I think they removed the full moon part and they spawn like all the time now.

SHUT DOWN THIS THREAD IMMEDIATELY THEY CAN'T FIND OUT

I have seen this many times across the AD faction areas, even once saw a massive party of naked Khajiit doing some irish looking dance around a guild trader.

Well the good news is it's always a full moon at a werewolf shrine!

There is some weird stuff going on in this game, that's for sure. Yesterday, there was a group of naked Dunmer walking around like Groucho Marx in the middle of Vuhlkel Guard by the Manor House for some reason and there was a group of bikini clad Argo's apparently trying to rob the Bank since they were being chased by guards.

Just plain weird.

Oh! Just a quick favor from folks... GET OFF YOUR DAMNABLE MOUNTS WHEN YOU'RE IN TOWN! Thank goodness you can't get trampled by all the horses, cats and weird mounts that, apparently are attached to their owners since they ride them everywhere, including in to Church!

Once I was doing some crafting and crafting writs in Grahtwood and there was a line of 20 people doing /kowtow, which was pretty weird too, and not to mention they tried killing a guard with a vr14 tank and 19 other healers.

Nah, I play on the EU XB1 server in the evening and even then, when most of them should be in bed asleep, there are those dorks in their skivvies jumping around acting like 5 year olds in a kiddie park and/or humping corpses.

This morning (EU time/server) there was a guy dancing, in his underwear, on a table in Captain Rana's Office in Bleakrock Village.

I felt the safest thing to do was to ignore him.

Moon has nothing to do with it.

Crazy as it may seem, it's cost effective to be naked when not in combat. For whatever reason, armour degredation happens whenever you do something, not just when you are hit! So if your in town crafting, go naked, save yourself a few gold.

I use this advice in my every day life as well.

Sometimes I see people at crafting stations naked and I can tell are upgrading their gear, I know I have done that a few times. Shame Zeni didn't make equipped items improvable.

The other day there were two men characters fighting in a portal (one of them in underwear), and after we closed it, both went to the grass, lay down toguether and start chatting. I´m not a moralist, so I don´t care. But: How can they do those movements? Do they use add ons? I have also seen people applauding, and doing other gestures that my character cannot do.

I was about to post an /emote list, then I realized you're probably on console with no text chat so I have no clue.

TequilaFire

Emotes are on a separate wheel activated by right arrow on console, you select what you want and add to the wheel just like pots.

Personality. It was a dedicated Attribute before Skyrim nuked it into just the Speech skill tree.
Personality stat is a general stat that impacts an individual's likability and ease of communicating with others.
Personality can also lead those who look favourably upon you to give you better pricing on items.

TequilaFire

Be glad there are no naked mods like Skyrim. lol

I know how to activate the wheel, I just can't get anything to work on it. Hitting X or any other button doesn't do anything and I end up having to go in to inventory to use the item anyhow. What's the point? What am I doing wrong?

Ulaidian

There are a few times I have saw this, but then remembered that I myself have been down to the kacks whilst upgrading/improving my gear. No funny dancing though.. the kacks are a bit loose fitting, and I don't want the guard arresting me for indecent exposure!

TequilaFire

Did you assign to the wheel when in inventory by pressing square? (PS4)
Then in game press and hold right arrow to bring up emote wheel, select with stick and release just like a pot or siege weapon.

Okay. I think I get it. There is no extra button pressing. Just select what you've placed on your wheel and you'll use it.

I've been avoiding it for a while now, but, since it's that easy, I'll start using it.

Thanks so much!

No. I didn't design the town where the bank is 50 miles from the crafting tables.


Dance with the girl in Vulkhel Guard gazebo.

Saw it the other day and ignored it. Back during the PC beta there would be huge gatherings at such locations just before the server shut down and wiped. It was a "last day of the world" thing.

This is just a goofy kid thing from what I can tell.

I can remember during one of the later betas when early quests for the AD where bugged and the bosses took 2 hours to respawn and everyone would use emotes while we waited for them to spawn, but nobody went around naked dancing during those "gatherings".

This just shows a lack of imagination...

The end of beta parties on the weekends resulted in lots of under garments.
