Blight has hanging or massive lag issues

Same problem, fps dropped to single digits in a blighted map. FPS was still extremely low even after all monsters were dead. As I opened each blight cyst the FPS gradually climbed higher until it reached my cap again and there was no lag.

CPU: i5-12400f
gpu: nvidia geforce rtx 3060

Having the same issue I9 + 4090, never happened on previous leagues :(

Same, I think I'll have to reroll my atlas.

I have a 4080 and blight is even making me crash to desktop

4090 and still turns into a slide show at the end of the blight.

Same here; crippling on a 3-fps level even in encounters (haven't even tried running a blighted map yet). No other monster-dense mechanic does something even vaguely similar. Please fix!!

Computer: Intel i7-10750H, 2.60GHz, 32 GB RAM; NVIDIA Quadro T1000, 4 GB; no VSYNC, triple buffering, or AA.

Hmm, just realized it was set to DX11 rather than 12... need to try that.

Update: something of the combination of switching to DX12, tuning most sounds way down via config, and forcing max GPU performance for the process via NVIDIA panel managed to sort it out. Not exactly purring along but playable now.

Can somebody finally answer for this topic? It's pretty common problem. Why can't we just enjoy playing this game. Especially blight mode
