Notes
- This command is very commonly used for seeking members who fit a certain criteria.
- Level and rank ranges can either be done singular or for a range of numbers, eg. /search all rank 2, /search all invite 10-15.
- Searching for a particular name can also display similar names which begin with your query.
- Search subcommands for races, job, or nation may be abbreviated with the first 3 letters.
- Area names may be abbreviated with the shortname of a zone. A partial list is given below.
- You may only perform area-specific searches in areas where your character has visited.
- You may do a region-specific search which include players from areas you have not visited.
- Battlefield and instanced zones (performed from outside the zones) do not work as expected, except Dynamis zones.
- After performing a search, it is possible to refine the search results by selecting "more..." (the first line of the Search Results dialog). This process must be done through the menus.
- Searches that return a large amount results will have their search results truncated. The exact number shown (versus truncated) will be displayed in your log. It is not possible to display the truncated hits directly; instead you can refine your search further using the above method or start a new one.
