Gestures - Dark Souls 3


Gestures in Dark Souls 3 will be similar to other Souls games and allow the player to express emotion or direction to other players. Gesturing to the Fire Keeper makes her react to you.

There are a total of 33 gestures in Dark Souls 3. Upon collecting them all, you'll get an achievement/trophy.

Kill the Darkwraith to receive the full Red Eye Orb, then talk to Leonhard again to receive the gesture.

Note that while Pale Shade can be summoned for the Soul of Cinder fight, it will not perform the gesture.

 Prostration Recieved from Patches after replying "No" when he asks for forgiveness in Firelink Shrine, or after confronting him in the Cathedral of the Deep after he lowers the bridge with "You know who I am".
 Toast Recieved by talking to Siegward of Catarina after assisting him in defeating the Demon on the way to the Road of Sacrifices. Can similarly be received in the kitchen near the Distant Manor in Irithyll of the Boreal Valley if previously missed.
 Sleep After receiving the Toast gesture from Siegward of Catarina, wait for him to go to sleep. Then attempt to talk to him again. If missed the first time you meet Siegward, it is possible to get it from him in the kitchen in Irithyll.
 Curl Up Recieved from Greirat of the Undead Settlement after giving him Loretta's bone. At some point upon returning to Firelink, he will be in this pose, mourning Loretta. Attempt to talk to him to receive the gesture.

 Path of The Dragon Received from corpse after Oceiros, the Consumed King. This is necessary to access Archdragon Peak.

 Trivia

  • The Quiet Resolve gesture was originally from the Dark Souls 1 trailer. The character who uses the gesture in the trailer is wearing the Elite Knight Set, the same set worn by Anri, the character who teaches you the gesture in Dark Souls III. 
  • There are several gestures that are performed by NPC's that can not be obtained by the player, most notably the majority of sitting and standing idle poses, the gestures the Firekeeper does in response to gestures done near her, and the standing Toast gesture performed by Amnesiac Lapp.

          yesterday i got invaded by a guy who was a total noob. he buffed his sword, and didn't even wait until i buffed my mace, i got hit, but dealt like 0 damage. then i killed him with 4 R1s and pointed down. Later he invaded again and was super salty, he only fought on stairways when he was in advantage, rolled after every attack, tried to bait me into ambushes (didn't work) and constantly chugged. at the end i got annoyed he kept chasing me with armor of thorns but didn't dare to do a real battle, so i just went into deacons fight.

            You can infact get every gesture, its just about timing and how often you go back to firelink. For instance, getting Darkmoon loyalty and Proper Bow in one play through is what most people have problems with, however, if you beat Yellowfinger twice, once in the upper swamp and lower swamp, it should trigger Siris to appear in Firelink, so you can keep Abyss Watchers alive to summon Yellowfinger once you join Rosaria you can get Darkmoon Loyalty gesture from her there. once thats done, go back Cathedral of the Deep and offer the pale tongue to Rosaria. And there you have it. Proper Bow and Darkmoon Loyalty in one playthrough.

              I think it's retarded that you absolutely need to go through NG+ to get every gesture on one character. NG+ isn't even good anyway...

                I just found out that this was a trophy at the end of my third and last playthrough where I was going to comfortably get the last trophies in a completed world. I am soooooooooo *****ing pissed right now, if you think I am going to start another playthrough (a fourth one) just to get a few gestures you can suck my*****FromSoftware. Screw Platinums who needs them right. After well over 250 plus hours as far as in concerned I did platinum the game!!!
