Death Recap
The Death Recap window shows what led to a character’s death. It has three parts:
- Damage Log: what happened to your character, including damage taken and healing received.
- Damage Sources: all NPC damage done to the raid, and all healing the raid received.
- Encounter Statistics: general numbers for the raid, and numbers for each enemy in the fight.
Choose how it opens
- Click the Settings tab.
- Find Death Recap.
- Pick Hotkey or Automatic.
With Automatic, the window opens by itself when you are slain.
With Hotkey, you make an EverQuest hotkey button. Press it to see your last death.
Make the hotkey
- Pick Hotkey in Settings, as above.
- Click the Triggers tab.
- Click the three dots at the top right, then Hotkeys, then Death Recap.
- You will see The command has been copied to your clipboard!
- In EverQuest, paste into the chat box and press Enter.
You now have a button called Death Recap that you can put on a hotbar. It sends the emote /em wonders how they died., and Nag opens the recap when it sees it.
The Death Recap item under Hotkeys is grayed out unless you picked Hotkey.
Look at an old death
- In the Triggers tab, click the three dots, then Death Recap.
- Pick your Server and Character, then click Next. If your character is not listed, click Select Log File.
- Click a death in the list. It shows a Description and a Timestamp.
You will see the recap for that death.
If the hotkey stops working
Live servers now put ~ in front of your name on emotes. Nag 0.2.27 fixes the Death Recap hotkey. Triggers you edited yourself may need a fix. See the FAQ.
Show it from a trigger
A trigger can open the recap too. Use the Display Death Recap action. The Documentation lists every action.
