bump?
help? anyone working at GGG?
????
FPS drops as low as 9-10. Shader spikes massively and FPS drops to unplayable. This is quite ridiculous with all the resources that Tencent (owner of POE) has. Fix this or give me my money back.
nvm

i have also tried everything that you wrote and the problem persists. my drops aren't that severe in regular maps (from 60 fps to around 40) except for some areas, e.g. the last map in act 2 and act 3, where they drop to 20. in the endgame however it's a completely different story. when doing breach or other modes when a lot of monsters are loading, then the game becomes unplayable. the shader graph spikes like crazy constantly and the fps tanks to around 20. when the monsters stop loading in however it stabilizes.

the game also keeps crashing when loading new areas and i have to use poe uncrasher to play it without hard locking my PC in those cases

i have a nvidia 4070 graphics card, amd 5600x, 16gb of ram and m2 ssd 1TB
