How do I use chat?

  • Hello. I still wasn't able to figure out how can I use the chat, and cannot find in anywhere in the settings. Can someone please enlighten me? I need to use a /sad command in order to proceed with a quest and I don't know how I can activate chat. I was able to find Quick Chat in settings. However, that is not what I need.

  • The character just needs to cry in front of the tombstone.
    Go to the menu - emotions and select "cry"

  • Mr Nimrod your thinking way too far out of the box... haha... ^.^ sorry about that, it's just simple each time you want to say something or want to talk to someone. You just press the "enter" button then type anything you want to say. And to use the back slash command ( / ) Ex. Happy or Laugh you just stand your character facing the object or a player then press enter then type /Happy and that's it.


    Other commands you can do with the ( / ) backslash command is the following... /sad or /cry /angry or / mad /happy or /laugh /sit and this ( / ) backslash commands are also called basic character "emote gesture". that can be found on all other games that is ( / ) backslash enabled.

  • Thank you all for your suggestions and help :) Yeah, I suppose I did overthink it quite a bit. The game clearly says to press ENTER to chat.

  • the backslash command also applies to the various chats like global, say, party and so on.

    hovering over the first part in the typing section will show you what command goes with what chat. for example: press enter and type /s ( then Space) will display a text in Say.

    Global spans the whole server, say covers the area around you, area chat covers the area in which you are like Arcadia or Bastion and so on.

    /r automatically replies to the (latest) whisper you receive.

    from the top of my head the main other chats used are /p ( party chat) and /i (raid).

    emotes can be triggered by certain words, like when you write "lol" in your chat it triggers the emote "laugh". you can change the triggers in the emote menu.
