    [BUG] - One disconnect from a full party of eligible loot receivers = only 1 chest

    Time: 12/28/2014
    Frequency: N/A - anytime a disconnect occurs during an encounter within Final Coil of Bahamut.
    World name: Brynhildr
    Character name: Asherek
    NPC name: N/A
    Monster name: Phoenix (applicable to any Final Coil of Bahamut instance)
    Class/Level: PLD / 50
    Party or solo: Full Party
    In-game time: 10:17PM
    Area and coordinates: Final Coil of Bahamut - Turn 3
    Steps:
    1. Enter any Final Coil of Bahamut instance with a full party, with everyone eligible to receive loot for the week. This means that 2 chests should appear as per the ingame rules once the encounter is defeated.
    2. One (or more) person(s) disconnects (out of their control) from the game mid-way during the encounter/near the end of the encounter.
    3. Encounter is defeated with said person(s) still disconnected.
    4. Pop-up appears indicating that the group is only eligible for one chest, even though the correct number of chests should be two.

    This needs to be addressed as we (as players) cannot guarantee consistency of connections to the game. The only known workaround right now is to purposefully wipe to the encounter if we know the disconnected person cannot login again to the game before the encounter is defeated. Additionally, this is not always possible as disconnects can happen very close to the end of an encounter as well, meaning we are getting penalized due to a bug in the game/design issue.
