01 / GETTING STARTED
How to talk
to bots.
Playerbot commands are normal chat messages. Choose the channel based on how many bots you want to direct — then send the command as plain text.
Whisper
Send a command directly to an individual bot.
/w BotName followParty chat
Give the same instruction to every eligible bot in your group.
/p attackAsk the bot
See the commands the bot currently accepts on this realm.
/w BotName help02 / PARTY CONTROL
Get the party moving.
Use these in a whisper for a single bot or send them in party/raid chat for the group.
followMove toward and follow the player.
stayHold the current position.
attackAttack the selected target.
fleeRun toward the player while ignoring other activity.
summonAsk the bot to summon you, subject to the realm configuration and normal spell conditions.
lfgHave a bot join your group. Use lfg 5, lfg 10, and so on to request a group size.
03 / COMBAT STRATEGIES
Fight your way.
Combat strategies are controlled with co. Add with +, remove with -, and toggle with ~.
co +tank,-aoe,~boostCheck a bot’s current combat strategies with co ?. Reset them with co !.

04 / TARGETS & POSITIONS

Raid markers and saved positions give the group clearer instructions for pulls, crowd control, and movement.

06 / ALTBOTS
Bring your own crew.
These commands manage characters you own that have been made available as playerbots. Their availability depends on realm configuration.

07 / AUTOMATIC SYSTEMS
Some systems just work.
Dungeon Master, proximity voice chat, party scaling, random-bot buffs, and area loot do not need player chat commands. Start Dungeon Master runs through its NPC; the other systems activate automatically when the realm enables them.
