With EQ and DAoC, the "ASSIST" command is used.

You simply do "/assist player1", and you enter combat with the same
target as player1 (provided player1 is in range).

In guild and group teamwork, you have a player which is typically
called "main assist" for that reason. When the aforementioned
players calls out for the attack, then everyone does /assist. In a
couple encounters, this is highly useful, as targets can change
according to tactical situation; the "main assist" will call for the
new target.
