Performance Issues

Hello there, have been enjoying PoE 2 so far, but I do have a lot to say about the performance.

To make it clear, my PC is less than a year old and I have never experienced it with any other games, that are way heavier.

PoE 2 has made my PC freeze several times, where I have no other choice but to force shut down, which is not good for my computer. It always happens during loading screens in-game. It froze my PC at least 5 times already and I never had performance issues before PoE 2.

My friend also wanted to play with me, but immediately upon installation of PoE 2 on his gaming laptop, the game crashed. I understand that it is still early access and there is still a lot of work to do on optimization, but the game should definitely not crash, let alone freeze an entire PC.

I have created another character to play with a friend, and somewhere in the beginning of Act 2, I noticed that I started having random FPS drops, but it does not seem like I have the same issue when I play alone on my main character. He was playing a monk, and I assume some of his lightning spells might have influenced the gameplay? I am not sure why it is happening specifically in Act 2 when I play with a friend, just FYI, it was very unpleasant to play with random FPS jumps, while simply just walking (no spells were being used at the time, but the movement was not smooth), restarting the game or the PC did not solve the issue.

Then there are several bugs regarding bosses:

Zalmarath: Appreciate the unique setup, and I understand that it works differently, but a lot of times I am teleported below the arena or on top of Zalmarath's head, where I cannot see what I am doing. It occurs around the edges of arena or being very close to the boss in specific spots, when he is moving.

Tor Gil: While playing with a friend, he was able to finish the boss in 10 minutes without entering the arena at all. He just stayed outside and spammed his lightning spell until he killed the boss. While it might be fun to skip the fight, it kinda defeats the purpose of the game if there are such bugs.

Xyclucian: Had some fun with it, but had to turn down some graphics, the map is beautiful, but it's not well optimized with all the sparkles. Upon entering the arena, it became laggy with all the different spells the boss was throwing + the map, I think my computer got overwhelmed, which was surprising to me, because it should be fit to handle it.

Overall, awesome game, but still a lot of bugs present and requires a lot of optimization to make it more playable.

Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 5500, 3600 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060
RAM: 32 GB
Screen: MSI MAG 274URFWDE 160Hz

I also tried to play around with frame rates and graphic's settings, it didn't really help.
