/bread and /read emote

[ArittoYuki]

+1 for me here.

I was very disappointed to find out /bread and /read were not persistent, I really hope they change these along with /tomestone and /converse.

[Jezikhana]

Same. I really want to be able to do /read for extended time. Bread I get it, the bread should nom down to nothing eventually if it was looped and since it doesn't nom down? A case can be made for non-persistent. I want to not have to resort to scholar/summoner if I want to hang out reading a book.

[CassandraJean]

yes! yes please!!
I love both the new /read and /bread emotes and they look perfectly like they ought to loop and be persistent but instead they just stop.
They would both be lovely idle animations. Please consider changing them to looping emotes! They would be the first persistent emotes that work sitting down too which would be amazing.
(also, /tomestone would be great for a looping emote too)

[BiddyBatnana]

+1 loop animation for both

[Kyu-Momo]

Agreed. I wish they would loop it continuously.

I got the bread emote today. Not only is it disappointing that it doesn't loop, it also stops very abruptly : /

I did try what someone suggested by making a macro that is /wait 14 for the /read emote and while it does work.... there's no way really to cancel it when you move out after using the macro. So you'll randomly pull the book out at another 14 second interval just because. I honestly see no reason this shouldn't just be regularly looped.

The /read emote is very...disappointing? Besides the lack of looping, there's no page turn, no nothing. It looks more like you're a priest reading scriptures than actually reading.

it does say you "read a verse" on the emote LOL. Idk, I won't be that picky about it since we just finally got a read emote after all this time... but looping is a must. Personally I like the little "oh my" movement my character does during the emote like they found something spicy.
