As I've been told many times before, it's often rejected to roleplay in duties and such, typically with pug parties(though I've had some coined sessions develop with consensus before without any prior planning, but that's entirely besides the topic here). What I would like to know is rather how you operate roleplay in premade groups that acknowledge there will be roleplay.
So I'm asking for a bit of advice in how you go about RP'ing in a combat setting. Open world is pretty slow and free to go at any pace, duties seem to be less-so depending on the time limit. Do you include actions in your RP while in a duty? Or just quick lines between battles, pulls, or amid trial sequences? Do you just take your time or do you mix it up?
If you post just to recommend never doing it or that you don't, I'd rather no post at all. However, I would greatly appreciate some advice as someone who would like to participate in roleplay based duties for long term stories. So far when I have roleplayed in instances like pre-made PoTD runs or a couple ARR EX trials, I've only been IC through what I say as an action or a command/request. Occasionally some dialogue regarding the opponent's worth if the trial/duty gives that freedom of time(like the time spent between Bismark being hit by dragonkillers to the point where he's actually able to be walked upon to damage). Maybe some emotes here and there depending on the situation, like /beckon or /smile etc. How do you personally do it or go about it? How in depth do you go or do you refrain, why or why not?
Personally I've felt comfortable in most situations that don't require my full attention solely because of my typing speed being rather high. Enough to be able to type in between casting or just while auto-running to a new destination. How about you?
