Scorching ray, Crash

No idea if this is going to be read but... My game crashes every 2-3 instances playing a SR and the issue occurs when shield charging into a pack, casting orb of storms and then attempt to SC and the game times out and crashes. Have tried both dx11 and dx9, using a 980 and drivers are up to date.

Welcome to the club. I've crashed during Shaper, and I lost the instance. Same thing with various tiers16.

Same thing happening to me very often and extremely frustrating when attempting shaper/uber/beachhead rotations where you don't have portals to spare.

It seems there is a know issue with Scorching Ray and standing next to walls that is mentioned in the sticky, but from my experience the game crashes in open spaces most of the time. Twice when standing next to Atziri in the middle of her room. Maybe the crash is related to standing next to ANY objects, monsters included?

I hope this gets some attention and a fix soon. Happy to supply system details if the devs are interested.
I not use orb of storm or any other skill - jusl leveling with scorning ray. For a1-a3 game crash 7 times. Links are scorning ray - controlled destr - elem focus.

Scorching Ray causing crashes is a known issue, which you can find in the "Known Issues" thread.

"Scorching Ray: Can cause client or instance crashes in various situations.
Disabling multithreading can help in some cases.
Tukohama's Vanguard Spectres can also cause this crash."
ME. TOO.

D:
same here. my Tukohama Vanguards cast scorching ray totem and the game crashes. not always right away but very, very often.

edit: ok, saw the 'known issue' thread, thx

I'm crashing about 2-3 times per map. It's extremely annoying. I tested with other chars and it doesn't crash with them, only with SR
