Crashing Problems

I have been playing EA for PoE2 since its release. For the most part I really enjoy the game.

Prior to the patch that paused the game and reloaded the game state when a crash was detected (I believe it was 0.2.0, but maybe I am wrong), I never experienced a crashing issue. However since then I have had crashing issues at least once an hour. It seems to be even worse since I started playing in 0.3.x

Well today, within the last 30 minutes, I was doing an ascendency 4 attempt in the Trials of Chaos and it crashed during the fight with the Trialmaster. Usually this isn't too big of an issue because it pauses and lets me continue fighting after a game state reload. However, this time when the game reloaded I was dead. No chance to try to finish the fight, no chance to get my ascendancy, just an absolute waste of 300 exalted orbs.

I am not heavily into the crafting and selling side of things within the game. So it feels like not only was I robbed of a good attempt at the ascendency, but also the hours of gameplay it takes for me to even get the chance to attempt the ascendency.

Is there any official recommendations for preventing crashes like this. Especially since, as I mentioned, when the game first released I was not having this problem (legitimately zero crashes until the aforementioned patch).

For reference my PC hardware is (and has been since I started playing):
GPU: RTX 4080
CPU: Ryzen 7 7700x
RAM: 64GB DDR5-6000
