Unlike many emotes requiring quests or purchases, the "Photograph" emote is readily available after downloading patch 7.18. No level or expansion is needed; simply log in and it's yours!

To use it, open your Emote menu (under the "Social" tab), find "Photograph" (usually in the "General" section), and select it. Your character will strike a pose and snap a Polaroid-style photo. Add it to your Favorites for easy access!

This versatile emote works in various environments, including underwater and while mounted. It's a perfect tool for creative screenshots and playful interactions.

Patch 7.18 serves as a prelude to the substantial Patch 7.2, arriving in late March, bringing new dungeons, the Arcadion's return, Cosmic Exploration, and more.
