Some of those commands are outdated as of the retail release (such as setting a party waypoint and inviting another player to a party). I'm updating my list as I discover the changes.

TABing through commands is a complete waste of time. It's far easier to have the command list printed out and sitting next to your keyboard.

Emotes

Current Darkfall emotes, as listed in-game through /list_emotes
