massive lags and crashes

Hello, after browsing the forum for several days, and my problem is similar to several others, I haven't been able to find a specific reference, so I'm starting a separate thread. My game is completely unplayable. I can't say exactly how long this has been going on. I only started a few days after the League launched, and when I reached the endgame, I noticed these problems. Maybe it's only been since I switched to Impending Doom; I can't remember exactly when.



When I go into a map and have to kill a larger number of mobs, the game starts to lag massively (sometimes 3-4 seconds)...then it jumps on, I die or am immediately lured out (after the GGG gears appear).

Frequency: Each map countless times. Unable to play.

What I'm observing are these massive lag spikes on the CPU and GPU. What's also noticeable here at the moment of lag is that my MSI load indicator (left side) shows a GPU load of 1%, but then jumps back up. With my current settings, all hardware temperatures are perfectly fine (<75), and load rarely exceeds 80%.

I don't have any problems with any other game. Everything runs smoothly there.


CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700K
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3080
WIN 11
Steam-Client
Realm: EU, RU, US (Always same issues)
Drivers are up to date!

in brasil server too

its fps decrease a lot for me too... not matter if blight, harbinger, wildwood wisps efects, originator packs effect, harvest, beyond etc etc etc

Is it all the time? My game will crash no matter what if I try to run juiced harbinger. I dont have many crashes outside of that. There is no fix afaik and support has been dead silent on it, ive never seen them address this seemingly common issue.

All the time. Whether Harvest, Blight (not crazy blight strat), etc., any large cluster of mobs leads to minor to major lag, including occasional disconnects (~3 maps).

they broke something with one of the updates cause i had smooth endgame despite those lag server spikes which verybody had. It has been mre than 2 weeks now and they don't give any info about trying to fix it. They only give info like: "We will do better at communication","Here is some art which is more important than giving any info about fixing bugs". There have been many threads like these but like they don't reply to anything nor are trying to fix it.

i did one 20s video about my 37 min lag in kingsmarch boss...

Yeah, I'm finally done with this game for this league.

I've been trying to play somehow for many days, and since today, my game has completely crashed, on every map...now it's not even remotely playable anymore...no matter what settings, no matter which server. It makes me incredibly sad to have to watch this happen after a year without POE1 and a league that certainly would have been more fun.

You have to expect this when a developer keeps getting bigger and bigger.

EU servers. London and other servers on the mainland (EU). Laggy as hell and getting very annoying.

Not just Brazil or even places in NA. Its all over the world. Its not your computer or your internet. Its all on GGG end. No idea if they ever plan to do anything about it or not.

Maybe a way to get people over to play POE2. Who knows.

its sad man... for u, for me, for so many ppl!!

i keep gotting crashs;

when not crash, lots of decrease fps while in map;

other times game just freeze, i can move mouse, talk in chat, but cant move/attack, the screen really frozen with 'on death effects' or some attack of monster or my normal smite (i try other skills, its frozen too);

other times infinite load, i restart pc, log in game and never load karui shores, or my own hideout, or kingsmarch, or a map, or going out to the map...

very very sad state of the game for many ppl =\
