Like how script it? Say something without entering combat or saying something when he enters combat yadadada.

think its something like this ur searching:

-Credits to Maven @ arcEmu

--Written by Maven. Enjoy!


local timebetweenannounce = 45000 --Time between messeges the NPC sends
local restarttime = 120000 --How long you want until it restarts all over again.
local npcid = 99999 --The NPC's ID

--Change the folowing text to whatever you want
local message1 = "Hello! Welcome to our server!"
local message2 = "Please don't PvP Here!"
local message3 = "Have fun! Don't Forget to vote for us!"
local message4 = "Visit our site at [Site URL]"
local message5 = "This was made by Maven for ArcEmu!"


function Announcer_Yell(pUnit, Event)
pUnit:SendChatMessage(12, 0, message1)
pUnit:RemoveEvents();
pUnit:RegisterEvent("Announcer2_Yell", timebetweenannounce, 0)
end

function Announcer2_Yell(pUnit, Event)
pUnit:SendChatMessage(12 ,0, message2)
pUnit:RemoveEvents();
pUnit:RegisterEvent("Announcer3_Yell", timebetweenannounce, 0)
end

function Announcer3_Yell(pUnit, Event)
pUnit:SendChatMessage(12, 0, message3)
pUnit:RemoveEvents();
pUnit:RegisterEvent("Announcer4_Yell", timebetweenannounce, 0)
end

function Announcer4_Yell(pUnit, Event)
pUnit:SendChatMessage(12, 0, message4)
pUnit:RemoveEvents();
pUnit:RegisterEvent("Announcer5_Yell", timebetweenannounce, 0)
end

function Announcer5_Yell(pUnit, Event)
pUnit:SendChatMessage(12, 0, message5)
pUnit:RemoveEvents();
pUnit:RegisterEvent("Announcer2_Yell", restarttime, 0)
end

function Announcer_Start(pUnit, Event)
pUnit:RegisterEvent("Announcer_Yell", 1000, 0)
end
RegisterUnitEvent(npcid, 6, "Announcer_Start")

but if it wasnt a announcer, then u can do so he talk on combat, dead etc,

function MOB_Combat(Unit, Event)
Num1 = 0
Unit:SendChatMessage(14, 0, "TXTXTXT?")
Unit:RegisterEvent("MOB_Phase1", 13000, 0)
end

RegisterUnitEvent(NPC ID, 1, "MOB_Combat")

And there is the last option to do when you right click them / speak to them, then you just cn add this SQL

DELETE FROM `npc_text` WHERE (`entry` = 'X');

INSERT INTO `npc_text` VALUES ('X', '1', 'Should Kil\'Jaeden rise up through the Sunwell our world will be thrown into a war the likes of which has not been seen for 10,000 years!', 'Should Kil\'Jaeden rise up through the Sunwell our world will be thrown into a war the likes of which has not been seen for 10,000 years!', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '', '', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '', '', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '', '', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '', '', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '', '', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '', '', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '', '', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0');

DELETE FROM `npc_gossip_textid` WHERE (`creatureid` = 'X');
INSERT INTO `npc_gossip_textid` VALUES ('X', 'XX');
