Constant Crash to Desktop

I played a sorc up to level 14 and part way through the Ogham Village I had a crash to desktop, now every time I try to log in to that character the game crashes to desktop.

I created and can play another character with no problems but the sorc sometimes crashes out before loading in and sometimes a second after.

Obviously could be a bug but... I was having a similar crash on a character and spot and i updated my nVidia GPU drivers and problem went away. I usually avoid using latest drivers but they mentioned PoE2 in the graphics drivers so... something to consider.

Having exactly the same issue. Same class, same level, same area. Game locks up and crashes windows, hard reset required. This character is currently softlocked for me.

I crash to desktop every 40 - 60 min during gameplay and loading portal to town, sometimes I get the error message in game : missing textures. Playing @4k max setting, native no upscaling, getting stable 120fps no fps drops.

Latest nvidia drivers
Fresh windows install
Latest bios for x870e motherboard
Latest AMD cpu chipset drivers, stock cpu no overclock.
Windows 11 professional up to date.
I monitor my cpu and gpu temps are stable no thermal throttling.

This is the only game I crash, playing the latest games with no problems. I was using vsync, will try without.

It would be a good idea to automatically generate a crash report containing details about the error. If the devs wan my crash report and my diag pls let me know where to send the info.
Thank you.
