I did actually have to enable strict for the purposes of shift+q/e but I disabled it again when I removed those as my strafe keys.Quote:

In my case it's the modifier key 'shift'. Shift+w .. release w then shift all is good. Release shift then w and I get a runaways. Though as others have said it occurs for hw boxers as well.. the annoying thing about it is that it usually happens when you're franticly trying to stay alive :wacko:
yea... having strict checked with W on the list will cause that problem.
everything works find if you do this:
--
shift down (passes)
w down (passes... as it's shift+W)
w up (passes... as it's shift+W)
shift up (passes)
but things get messed up if you do this:
--
shift down (passes)
w down (passes... as it's shift+W)
shift up (passes)
w up (blocked as it's just W and it's on the do-not-pass list)
at this point, your wows have W still down and they keep running.
keeping strict unchecked will block this possibility
I feel so lonely on antonidas ;(
All the freakin time! But I wasn't going to bring it up in a thread here. Since you did I'll pitch in.
Usually happens right before I'm about to pull something, and I'm getting ready to show off how awesome-tastically I handle an impossible fight. But then there goes Shingo (my healer) charging off into a room of stunlocking manasucking whatevers, but he runs just far enough that he's still close enough to the rest of the group so the group gets aggro'd too...
Funny when we talk about it here. It's also funny that I'll notice one of them losing health rapidly on healbot or another addon first, before I even realize they've R-U-N-N O-F-T.
Then I do a 180 to see what kind of patrol is hitting us from behind, and that's about when that one dies and I realize that they were a runner. I think I have terrible peripheral vision (got all 5 windows on one big monitor)
In short, the only defense against this is
CONSTANT VIGILANCE
i love it when a toon is running and aggroing a boss or a pack of elite's while i am still ressing my selfs
beeing attacked while low on health and mana is quite fun once in a while actually i just wished i recorded some of my funny wipes
i touch a button by accident when i where looking for my ligther started a bossfigth wiped 100% before i looked at the screen once.
think my cat got me wiped once to. where in the kichen getting a beer one evening my cat where playing with my mouse and i saw five dead girls on the monitor
aja :) atleast getting gold for repairs is not a issue
Silver
I box on a Mac and a PC with software and hardware, and I see this happen all the time, especially with melee classes. When I box my mish mash team of random alts like a rogue, that rogue runs off on his own into the wild blue yonder at least once per week. Same thing with my hunter when she gets in melee range, she'll just start running a marathon on me.
By the way, the way you stop this is you push the direction they're running in once. The reason people think you have to jam keys is because you are trying to avoid pushing the direction they're already running, but that is actually what you need to do.
I have a funny video on youtube of the worse run away ever.
Think, runaway + bubble + epic whipe O.o
