Emotes are a delightful way to socialize in *Final Fantasy XIV*, adding fun and charm to your interactions within the game. Among the many emotes introduced over time, the Blow Bubbles emote stands out as an especially adorable feature. Here’s a detailed guide on how to acquire and use this whimsical emote.
Emotes in *FFXIV* can be unlocked through various in-game activities, such as completing specific quests or participating in Mogtome events. However, some special emotes, like the Blow Bubbles emote, are available for purchase in the Mog Station. This charming emote celebrates the arrival of Spring and events like Little Ladies Day.
To unlock the Blow Bubbles emote, head over to the Mog Station item store. Log in with your account details, and navigate to the 'Optional Items' section under 'Additional Services'. You'll find the emote listed among the 'New Items'. For players in the US, the cost is **$7.00 USD**. Note that this emote is character-specific and cannot be gifted to others.
After purchasing, log into *FFXIV* and visit a Delivery Moogle in any major city or hub. Alternatively, check your Free Company's mail delivery at your house. The emote should be ready for pickup once the mail icon appears on your HUD.
Once you've retrieved the emote from the moogle delivery, locate the 'Ballroom Etiquette – Bubble Diversions' item in your inventory. Use this item to unlock the Blow Bubbles emote permanently for your character (keep in mind, it's not account-wide).
To use the emote, open your Emote menu under the Social tab. Scroll through the General emotes until you find Blow Bubbles, typically located near the bottom. For easier access, you can add it to your Favorites or your hotbar.
When activated, your character will blow clouds of bubbles in two rotations before stopping. While the emote isn't continuous, it's perfect for capturing cute moments and adding a playful touch to your gameplay.
