Emotes can also offer a sense of relief in an otherwise chaotic situation. If your team is facing a horde of death, share a hug before being overwhelmed. You can only use one emote in a given mission, so choose wisely.

Victory poses are another way to showcase emotion but are only used at the end of a successful mission. You can also unlock victory poses in the Warbond and equip them in your loadout screen before the start of a mission.
