Emote Suggestions

I think you can actually do that using Macros! you see healers all the time with unique raise macros! I'm pretty sure there's some custom emote macros by default!

You can indeed! See this Reddit guide, linked below.

Thank you for the advice, but macros aren't what I want. I want to just type a single line to do an impromptu custom (animated) emote.

Using macros won't work for me, because you have to put macros that you've pre-made onto a hotbar to use them, and I already have 3 hotbars on my screen full of spells/abilities. I don't want to fill up more hotbars with random one-off emotes to click on.

Allowing custom emote text with the emote's specific slash command would add more flexibility to the emote system. Then I don't have to fill up hotbars, or I don't have to hunt around some nested hotbars with the mouse trying to remember what the icon for the custom emote I'm trying to find looks like.
