An Update on Server Performance After the 3.28.0c Patch

The Servers are still ultra laggy as of 18 March 2026 GMT 16:00

The game is totally unplayable, and the experience penalty on death sucks at level 90s due to the lag.

Please fix your servers ASAP.

We do this we do that, we apologize, won't happen again, yeah cool story

Servers are not fixed.
I get infinite loading screens.
Maybe check how you manage shader caches for us because that also could be the problem.

I tried re-downloading the game.
I have the latest game ready driver installed for nvidia.
I tried vulkan/directx12/directx11 : they all broken.
I tried cleaning %appdata%-> path of exile folder many times...
I tried making my nvidia shader cache unlimited or setting it 100gb...

Problem is not fixed.

peak hours have been unplayable since league start, but glad to see you guys are working on it.
Adaptive resistances mod on creatures still causing some sort of memory leak
Fix the crashes for ffs, it's been two weeks!
Try, try again.
We're human. Some of us make more mistakes than others. :)
This happens every league, every league, every league, every league, again, again, again and again... 🤣
