Someone went afk in public game just before boss and declined ready-check by timeout. So everyone got popup window telling them that player X declined the event, do you still want to continue? This is hardcore so another player declined as well (as it turned out).

I declined too because i know (from experience) that if you hit 'enter' now to open chat to ask what do we do, that 'enter' will accept popup question instead and teleport you to the boss. And this is what exactly happened to that poor fellow, only he was all alone there in front of the mighty beast.

We exited the game so Siegebreaker would be less intimidating but that didn't save the wizard sadly.

tldr: Consequences of having the same key button to open chat window and to answer important popup questions that require communication with your party.

Wow.

Thanks. Must make note of this and avoid similar mistake.

My strategy from now on, will be to not be the first one ready in a 4 man game.

Mine is to only play with d3rmt folks and friends of those folks

Kinda hard for me since, the EU community is smaller, I don't know many people who play

One on HC-EU here (for HC only course the lag spikes and latency on US-servers is to hard for me) and @Bort naturally
