Regular random game crashes since 3.25

Up until patch 3.25 POE was running smoothly without any crashes for me. My PC is not high end but it more than meets the demands for POE. Apparently that changed with said patch. Depending on the map I can have anything from 0 to the hard limit of 6 crashes because by then I have lost all portals to the map. Over the last year I tried slowly figuring out what type of content crashes my game (some of them are apparition shrines, heist contracts, just creating a new character and walking a few steps in the first zone, fighting essence monsters, fighting harbingers and sometimes just RNG I guess...).

I have every graphics setting set as low as possible and dynamic resolution activated. It feels like dynamic resolution sometimes doesn't work so instead of scaling down the graphics to ensure smooth gameplay the game just crashes. But I am honestly not sure if it even is the graphics or the amount of effects on screen that makes this happen since just walking a few steps in the first zone after creating a new character should hopefully not be too demanding on my GPU...

I am aware that POE 1 keeps evolving graphically to keep up with the times but the recent few patches did not seem to alter the looks of the game too much so I was hoping that instead the focus was put on optimisation. Doesn't seem like that happened either though, at least for me. I'm not a graphics Andy, I don't really care if I have everything set to low as long as the game works properly. Which it currently absolutely does not.

Not being able to start a new character after an 11 month league is kind of bonkers GGG.

Update: Just found some other types of content that doesn't work. Trying to enter a Warlord influenced map immediately crashes the game on the loading screen.

When using the scarab that puts "hunted traitors" into the map the game crashes quite often when getting close to these mobs.

I'll keep updating with anything new that I find, cheers.

since 3.26 launch the game crashes for me in any diferent content...

i test around 10/15 and all crashes me (not all times, but sometimes, so each content crash me at least 1 time).
