Poe 2 crashes my pc since 0.4.0 update
|
Same with me, PC has black-screened and froze up 3 times after around 6-7 hours of gameplay. Gonna leave this league and hope it doesn't do it next league. Never had this with previous leagues. PC doesn't crash outside of the game.

Having the same problem, the game woudln't even start for me :'(
The whole system just dies. No BSOD even, all the monitors go black and the PC stays like that until I hard-reset it using the reset button on the case. I can't even experiment on settings because all the settings are inside the game lol. The crash looks scary bc it kills the whole system, so first I thought that something is wrong with my hardware. So i stress-tested everything and nope. It's the game. Not to mention that I have several other modern games on the same PC and they work just fine.

Have the same problem, pc freezes for ~10 seconds then game crashes. The map I was on gets deleted btw. Tried disabling Nvidia upscalling but didn't help. Also didn't happen before 0.4 patch.

Ok guys. I now seriously think it has something to do with the heralds. Played the Disciple of Varashta for the entire day without a single crash. And managed to play the Pathfinder for a long time (2 hours+) with Herald of Plague and Herald of Blood turned off, but it's just about 30 min after turning them on and it's crashing again. Also matches (almost) my experience with the Druid, which has just one Herald of Ice and crashes after longer time compared to the Pathfinder.
Obviously, this is not 100% sure, so try it by yourselves, but if want to play while this bug is getting fixed, maybe try playing some mage classes for a while. Last edited by Albibek#3624 on Dec 21, 2025, 11:15:32 PM

It may or may not help everybody. What I have done back in September out of desperation is a complete driver uninstall of the recent NV driver I had at that time. Used "only" driver cleaner, didn't mess around in Registry.
Once done I have rebooted Windows and let it pull the original NV driver it had in the install image. I'm on 560.94 all my stutters and crashes are gone ever since. (I have played in both 0.3 and 0.4) Config: Ryzen 9 7950X NVidia RTX 4090 64Gb RAM SMT is ON Using Vulkan and NIS ingame setups. Hope it helps...

" I can't say what ggg did (not) do specifically but it manifests for people in different ways, and i never had a single crash until 0.4.0c Hotfix3. Heralds aren't the root here, i get crashes from spells using 0 heralds. I see more crap happening, i get a higher chance to crash basically.
