Frequent crashes on Linux Arch-based set

Since last sunday I experience very frequent game crashes (every 10-30 minutes) on EndeavourOS, game location doesn't matter. I have not experienced such crashes on 3.28 league start at all.

Somehow the problem is gone when I disable engine multithreading, dynamic resolution and dynamic culling, but also this tweaks reduce my fps by like 30%.

GPU drivers are up-to-date (downloaded yesterday evening), Proton versions I tried: Proton Hotfix, Proton Experimental, 10.0-1, 9.0-4, Proton GE. Results are always the same.

I have no crash reports, the game just turns off without any error or warning.

Is there any good way to prevent these kind of crashes without disabling multithreading?

My system specs:
OS: EndeavourOS Linux
KERNEL: 6.19.6-arch1-1
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070
GPU DRIVER: NVIDIA 580.126.18
RAM: 32 GB

I forgot to mention, I use Vulkan renderer, because DX11 is very unstable.
I also just started getting frequent crashes.. after playing since league start with 0 issues (other than the server latency stuff).

I'm a linux noob (on Bazzite), but did you see anything in like "journalctl" for example?

I launch POE thru Heroic Games Launcher and don't see anything weird in any logs (that I can find anyway). Game just freezes, then closes; sometimes while just idling in hideout.

Please post your Proton log file and your Path of Exile LatestClient.txt file.

Find them after a crash has happened, before running the game again.

It's weird, because today I played for like 4 hours straight, then after like 2 hours I opened the game again, created a new character and I wasn't able to reach Hillock.

I had to switch to DX12 to be able to play, Vulkan crashes the game directly on start (Deadlock issue), also Arch, with AMD.

The problem started on the new Mirage update, been playing so far on Vulkan since Mercenaries. DX12 is a laggy mess when doing high performance content like Breaches or Blight, check if switching graphics to DX11 solves the issue for you.

It seems until they find out what is breaking the game on linux is your only option, and I think right now it's not a priority for GGG to give Linux support.
