Overhead emotes (2024)

This article is about emotes appearing above players. For overhead prayers, see Prayer and Ancient Curses. For overhead skilling icons, see Animations#Overhead Skilling Icons.

Overhead emotes are a specific type of emotes that momentarily appear above the player's character for three seconds when activated. They can be accessed through the "Overheads" section of the Emotes interface.

There is a cooldown of three seconds after the icon has stopped showing before another overhead emote can be activated.
