Slash Commands - Zliz's EverQuest Compendium

Slash Commands

A slash command, also just called a command, is a command that you type within EverQuest. Almost all commands start with a slash (forward slash) - / - hence the name. A few chat-related commands start with a ; (semi colon).

Tips

Shortening Commands

All commands can be shortened. It works for the most part by looking for the first match, sorted alphabetically, although exceptions exist. For example, if you type /s, the first matching command is /say. An example of a command that doesn't follow the rule of shortening alphabetically is /con, which matches /consent first, but actually performs the /consider command. Be careful that you don't execute a command unintentionally by shortening it incorrectly.

Two commands can be shortened in a special way. The /who command can be shortened to just / (forward slash), and /emote can also be written as : (colon).

All commands are case-insensitive, meaning that it doesn't matter if you type /who or /WHO.

% Codes

A few special codes can be used in commands to output a target (only really useful in commands that output to a chat).

%m - Supposed to output the name of the pet your current target has. Does not work, just outputs "Pet".
%o - Outputs the objective gender-specific pronoun of your target (Him, Her, It).
%p - Outputs the possessive gender-specific pronoun of your target (His, Her, Its).
%r - Outputs the race of your target, only works on players.
%s - Outputs the subjective gender-specific pronoun for the target (He, She, It).
%t - Outputs the name of your current target.

/g Incoming with %t, kill %o! - will output: /g Incoming with a skeleton, kill it!

NPC Names With Spaces

When typing the name of an NPC in a command that accepts an NPC name as a parameter, use underscores (_) instead of spaces. For example:

/target a_skeleton

In the case of the /target command, you can also just type a part of the NPC's name, for example /target a_skel.
