How do you create or generate a waypoint

I wanted to set a waypoint earlier and so thought it would be as simple as entering [Calypso 99999, 99999, 999 Waypoint] into the system chat, but that didn't work. I then looked through the action library but couldn't find anything there either.

 

Ah ok, many thanks for that Tass!

 

Thank you. Never thought of right clicking on the map, and this will show me the waypoint marker on the map, right?

 

Thanks that will be really useful for letting others know where I am, but if I already have the coords then I should do what Tass suggests I guess.

 

OK so far I have been able to create a waypoint marker for wherever I am thanks to GeorgeSkywalker's suggestion of right-clicking on the map and selecting create waypoint, but I've not been able to create a waypoint by entering coords that I already have, eg:
/wp [Calypso, 99999, 99999, 999]. I didn't add a 'title' at the end because I don't know what that is. Anyway the system says try /help waypoint so I tried this with or without brackets, but this gives just another error, so not sure what to do now.

 

I already tried /help waypoint but that got me an error message and nothing was showing on the map. I also tried /help [waypoint], but same result. Entering [Calypso, coords, coords, coords] also didn't work, neither did /wp [Calypso, coords, coords, coords]. I didn't enter a title at the end because I don't know what that is and Tass says that's optional anyway. So bit of a mystery ;)

 

Yes, a waypoint marker showed for /wp [Calypso, 78054, 87487, 212, Morningtear Castle Shop] this time, so that's good. But can't for the life of me understand why this didn't work before, same for the location I wanted to find with the coords I had, so there could have been a systems glitch or something. I also added Pemphredo Island to my TP list, so at least I'll now be able to get to the starting area for the climbing event.

 

OK will do that. There's some nice views there and no mobs that could hinder the climbing event.

 

Right, this is the location of the starting area for climbing event, coords: /wp [Calypso, 50625, 68349, 196, Waypoint].


Immediate view of starting area. From here you can also see the blue dot for the Pemphredo Island TP.

 

Well don't all reply at once lol!

 

Ah ok, no problem with that. I sent you a PM in-game yesterday with the coords. If you highlight then cut 'n' paste it into the global chat the waypoint marker will show on the map.
