Is there some way we can get dev confirmation that it does actually work? I know they mentioned that #32 is bugged right now, but I believe literally everything has been tested except the 5pm-12am slot with rain. Are we 100% sure that fog, showers, fair and clear don't work at all times of day? Maybe we should get a checklist going.

If that's the case and it is working, then it's an emote we haven't thought to use or it's an extremely stringent time period. Outside of that, another specific condition. Speaking to Jospaire gives you a little story about how he believes it's an adventurer's goobbue from the Battle of Cartenau and how it was injured, ran through the Twelveswood and eventually came to an end in Thanalan. He comments, "The gods do indeed work in mysterious ways."

It could even be /salute in that case, but I just don't know. From people commenting on the French and German versions of #18, the text is different across all versions. Someone get a Japanese client translation?
