Add

Add refers to additional hostile NPCs that join the battle either by being aggroed by players or allied NPCs, or spawned instead of already being there (differing from mobs). Adds spawned by boss creatures do not generally drop loot. Depending on circumstances, it may or may not be a better idea to kill the adds before focusing on the boss itself. Killing adds is also a good way to rally during difficult encounters, although not all summoned creatures yield rally when they are defeated.

Example of adds

• Shades during Defeat the shadow behemoth event in Queensdale
• Lava Elementals spawned by Legendary Imbued Shaman in Volcanic Fractal
