Why are enemies often called adds*thank you*
Anyone know why? I was talking to my dad about this and when he asked why they were called this I started to wonder and don't actually know why

Enemies that move around rather than standing in one place, not to be confused with patrols (Or so my old Everquest friends told me). Pats/Patrols: Groups of enemies that follow a certain path, which often causes them to walk up in you during a fight. Proc: Process ([i]Edit: Proceedure[/i]). When a special ability triggers. The Proc rate is the amount of times that ability can trigger per minute. It was a programmer's term as I understand that made its way into early MMOs. Other stuff too... Anyway that's what was on top of my head.

Adds are additional units, not the boss.

1 Reply"Adds" or "mobs" have its terminology since the first days of MMORPGs or simply rpgs for some. It's to differentiate a Boss target from the others. For example during Valus Taarc you would say : Take out the adds. That would then mean everything else but the boss.

Abbreviating "addition" An addition to the boss.

Cuz they have attention deficit disorder.. They show up too the fight, quickly get distracted, they die, and more come back, with add

1 ReplyIt's just a way to say additional enemies. It's been around in games for a very long time. You must be very young to not know this.
