Pet Command Bar

The pet states summoner classes switch between constantly. All four are plain commands rather than abilities, so they can share a single macro or sit on separate keys.

Where to paste this

Open the EQ2 menu, choose Macros, and click New Macro.
Name it and pick an icon — the icon is what appears on your hotbar.
Drag an ability from your knowledge book into a step, or click Command and type one.
Add further steps for chat, targeting or pet orders with the Add Step button.
Drag the finished macro from the Macro window onto a hotbar slot.

More EQ2 macros

Assist the Main Tank
General
```
/target Tankname
/assist
```
Targets a named player and picks up whatever they are fighting. Keeps a whole group on one target without anybody calling it out loud.
Call for Help
General
```
/shout Contested up at the tower, need bodies
```
Broadcasts to everyone nearby. Still how open-world contested spawns get organised on the older servers.
Camp to Another Character
General
```
/camp Altname
```
Camps straight to a named character rather than going back through the select screen. A real time saver for anyone running crafting alts.
Cast on a Named Player
General
```
/useabilityonplayer Tankname "Reinforcement VI"
```
Casts an ability directly on a named player without changing your target. This is the closest thing EQ2 has to a mouseover heal and it is invaluable for support classes.
Find Players in the Zone
General
```
/who templar
```
Lists who is nearby, filterable by class and level. The fastest way to find a healer when your group loses one.
Group and Raid Chat
General
```
/g Incoming pull
/r Stack for the area effect
```
Posts to your group with /g or the whole raid with /r. Raid leaders live in /r, and pairing a call-out with the ability it describes is the most useful macro pattern in the game.
Narrow Targeting
General
```
/target_narrow gnoll
```
target_narrow matches a partial name and picks the nearest match, which is far more reliable than plain /target in a room full of similarly named trash.
One Ability, Many Commands
General
```
/useability "Taunt"
/g Taunting - hold your damage
```
The rule that shapes every EQ2 macro: there is no wait command, so a second ability on the next step simply never fires. Pair one ability with as many chat, target and pet commands as you like.
