Blight freezes my screen where I can't do anything but die and lose.

Is anyone else having the same problem with Blight that I am.
When I play the Blight mechanic my screen freezes up stopping me from doing a single thing, I can't move, I can't cast, all I can do is die.
And this is on non juiced standard Blights that are in a normal map, not a blighted map. Why is this the only mechanic that plays like this. I wasted all of my atlas points setting up this mechanic and now I cant even play it.
I'm on Console that can handle any other game, but this mechanic just freezes up everything. I'm bummed. Any one else suffer this fate?

I have in past leagues, yes. Something about Blight specifically, either the mob pathing interaction with the server, or possibly some graphic unique to it, seems to cause problems.

Same computer same connection this league and its been fine, but Ive had it happen before and its always blight.

I think its the mob density on the spawning node, but just guessing.

Ive had cases where standing too close causes a disconnect, crashes the instance or 99% of textures disappear and everyone is T-posing.

Turning off sound effects helps performance by a lot (30% boost in fps)

Thanks for all the good info my friends

wow never thought of this, Im gonna try it, I've always loved blight but the freezes always made me never do them

Had the same problem. Solution was obvious to buy a new pc. Problems disappeared.
