Technical Support (Path of Exile 1) - Random latency spikes in certain areas. - Forum

Hello, this has been happening to me for the last few days... And by the way it acts i highly doubt its my computer/ISP fault. When i enter a zone, for example, a T16 everything runs smooth and the second i join the mirage zone as soon as i see a monster or literally anyuthing i get random latency spikes. If i go back to the normal T16 instance and kill monsters everything runs smoothly. This is totally random, i might run 10 maps without this problem, but then have 1 map that is impossible to finish because i cant even move. PS: This is not only a mirage zone problem, the normal T16 might be completly impossible to run but the mirage zone goes smoothly. As i said its totally random and seems to affect specific instances. Is anyone having this problem aswell? Did you find any solution?
