Absolum emotes

Hold the Inventory button and press a direction. On a pad that hold is LB or L1. On a keyboard it is D. The Yeldrim door wants Thumbs Down and then Thumbs Up. Prima’s password article says hold RB instead, which conflicts with the control table.

The hold key disagreement

The control guide and several Steam posts put emotes on Inventory. Prima’s Yeldrim article writes RB or R1. I teach Inventory as the main hold because it matches the bind table, and I leave Prima’s RB line in the table so the conflict is visible.

With a Spark of Power, community posts describe a hidden ultimate: hold LB, then back, up, up, forward. They report it for Karl and Cider, and they do not report it for Galandra or Brome. That input is one community cluster. Version 1.1 added an emote pack and voices. Some emotes unlock from Ordeals or the Soul Tree. A full unlock list is not published.

Hold Inventory (LB, L1, or D) and press a direction.

Do emotes open the Yeldrim door?

Yes. Thumbs Down, then Thumbs Up. The full puzzle is on the password page.
