PLAYERBOT COMMAND REFERENCE

Command your crew.

Everything you need to direct playerbots in a group, set their combat behavior, manage progress, and bring your own alt characters along.

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.

/p attack
LIVE HELP

Ask the bot

See the commands the bot currently accepts on this realm.

Use these in a whisper for a single bot or send them in party/raid chat for the group.

Hold the current position.

attack

Attack the selected target.

04 / TARGETS & POSITIONS

Call the play.

rti cc moon

Set the crowd-control target icon; moon is the default.

@tank rtsc go 1

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.
