Performance issue with big spells

When I cast big spells, with big vfx-effects in NRFTW, I experience lag. Otherwise, the game runs fine. This is probably a known issue, but I just wanted to give some feedback.

Have a nice day.

Would you have examples for us Yavind? :slight_smile:

I do not have examples. But I can try to write it all down by detail next time it happens; how many enemies and what spell and so on. :slight_smile:

Yes just the names of the spells would be very helpful!

Thank you!

But for now I can say that; when I use this weapon, I’m wondering whether I’m actually hitting the enemy first. I don’t quite remember, but when I use Hellfire, the game lags heavily when the effect is triggered and enemies around me die. Can it be because of lightning and fire VFX at the same time? I can provide more details later. See the attached image of the weapon:

I have tried again, and it seems like it does not lag so much when there is just one or two enemies. But I cannot put my finger on it when it starts to lag with the Hellfire spell. I will take notice when It happens next time and come back with more info.

I was noticing heavy lag right now when I met an enemy with a big tail( Copse Treader | No Rest For The Wicked Wiki ) with a chainsaw thingy in Lowland Meadows(Danger level: 21), when he is doing alot of animations. The lag went away when he died. I think I’m noticing lag when there lots of stuff happening on the screen at the same time; big fast animations and/or lots of small enemies and Hellfire spell & chain lightning VFX.

(PoE 2 runs without lag)

Thanks, that’s helpful information!

If you have anything else to add about your performance regarding vfx or when a lot is going on your screen, add them here!

I’m escalating your issue to the team.
