Specialty

Staying true to his concept of being a mechanic, Add fully utilizes his mechanized weapon; the 'Nasod Dynamo', to aid him in battle. The Dynamos are not only able deal physical damage to targets, but are also able to fire rays of electricity as a way of dealing magical damage. As a ranged alternative, his dynamos can also be configured to form a powerful electricity cannon by the same way. Add is able to manipulate the electricity the cannon fires by either using his hands or kicking to fire powerful electrical blasts. This allows his attack style to freely transition between long range and melee attacks. Another aspect of Add is that some of his skills have the concept of 'Magnetism', allowing numerous homing attacks which compensates for his low HP and physical defense values.

Special Ability

Main Article: Dynamo Point System

Instead of a normal awakening mode, Add gets access to Dynamo Configuration Mode. His DP system allows him to go in and out of awakening whenever he sees fit. Maintaining a balance of Dynamo Mutation Points and the DP gauge is what makes Add different from others.

Background

Main Article: Elder Castle's Underground Laboratory

A descendant of a family that studied Nasods, Add is an intelligent mechanic who had inherited the fascination for the robotic race. When his entire family was captured and slain for investigating the Nasods' forbidden secrets, Add was forced into slavery. While trying to escape, he fell into an ancient library and was trapped for a long time. Here, he continued his study of Nasods and in due time, he invented a weapon called the Nasod Dynamo. He eventually used the weapon to escape the library before it could collapse on him.

Ridden with insanity due to isolation, Add took to the road to find rare Nasod codes, but discovered that the library's time distortion had sent him far into the future when the Nasod race had already fallen. He tried to return to the past at first, but then he changed his mind when he found traces of Eve.

Air Float

Add while afloat.

By pressing , Add will be able to stand on top of his dynamos, allowing him to stay afloat as long as he wants. MP will be depleted while afloat and the rate at which it depletes will increase over time. While afloat, Add is able to execute a double jump by pressing again.


Air Dash

Unlike the other characters, Add's air dash is different. When Add air dashes, instead going downwards, he will 'fly' forward.

In order to use Air Dash:

  • Dash off a platform
  • Dash after using Air Float
  • Jump, then dash
  • Dash and press twice.


By pressing again while 'flying', Add can execute another forward jump, providing more coverage.

Trivia

  • He officially joins the main cast after the Ancient Waterway story quest [Dungeon] The Real One!.
    • Like Elesis, Add is not initially part of the El Search Party. Rather, he follows them in secret to study Eve and find an opportunity to capture her.
  • In the Japanese server, Add's Dynamos are renamed to Nasod Drive.
  • Add chases after Wally after finding traces of Nasods in Wally's Castle. He then makes a deal with him by trading blueprints of the Nasod Inspector for the whereabouts of the Nasod Core. After the events on Elder, Add manages to catch up to Wally during Cargo Airship and saves him after he was thrown off the ship by Raven. Add partners up with Wally in order to search for the Altera Core, but Add betrays Wally when he finds Eve in the Altera Core. Add spares Wally's life but destroys Wally's escape vehicle before he leaves to track Eve.
    • In the backstory it is stated that Add betrays Wally, but technically it was Wally that betrayed Add first. They were supposed to contact each other when one of them found the Altera Core, but when Add finally arrived at the Altera Core, Wally was already there decoding the Core's information.
  • For helping Vanessa of Velder, Add was lent a building which he made into his personal Nasod research laboratory. Add was first confronted by Eve in his Nasod research laboratory after the events of Southern Gate but easily defeats her. However, Add was unable to take Eve due to the El Search Party's protection.
  • Add is the first male character to have naturally higher magical attack rather than physical.
  • According to game developers, Add is conceptually designed to be a pair character to Eve, who they refer to as the most popular character in the game.
    • This is shown as Add's concept wears mostly white, has white hair, and uses floating Nasod weapons like Eve.
    • They later denied this statement, saying Add is only related to Eve through backstory but was never designed as a pair character. The only pair characters are Elsword and Elesis.
  • Similar to Chung, Add's Korean voice vocalizes the names of his Special Actives more loudly when in Dynamo Configuration mode, his own version of Awakening.
  • Add holds a grudge against Elsword for destroying the Altera Core that he worked so hard to find.
  • Add likes sweet foods, especially chocolate.
  • Add is afraid of ghosts as seen in his dungeon clear dialogues from Underground Chapel.
  • Add seems to be a clean person as he loathes getting his clothes dirty. He also seems to dislike becoming sweaty, as he complains and wishes to install a cooling system in the dungeon Dragon Nest and whining about his clothes getting dirty in Heart of Behemoth.
  • Unlike all other characters, the hitboxes and models of Add's attacks are separate from himself and can disappear if they are caught by skill delays.
  • With the release of Arc Tracer's new portrait, Add was the first character where every path's in-game character portrait was drawn by a single artist.
  • Oddly, Add is shown to have distinctly pointed ears compared to other human characters. This is especially visible in Arc Tracer, Time Tracer, and Lunatic Psyker's portraits. The reason for this is unknown.
  • In 2015, Add was chosen to be released as the first Nendoroid figurine for Elsword after receiving the most votes in a poll voted by players.
    • These Nendoroid figurines are not available for sale. They are distributed to players during certain events.
