    Hi, starting yesterday, my client went from a flawless frame rate to massively laggy, almost unplayable. I play with all settings turned on. I also have rise of the Tomb Raider (graphics on max) which has some of the best graphics there is and it hasn't been effected at all. Its also taking much longer then usual to start and shut down the client.

    980 GTX
    Skylake 4.0 ghz
    DDR4 4000 RAM
    Samsung Pro M.2 PCI-Express x4 SSD NVMe (110K confirmed IOPS)

    Same here. Owl's head is almost unplayable. I have a solid internet connection and specs are fine.

    Yep, mine really dips as well. I'm running a Mac Pro.

    I played the game about 4 hours ago for an hour and it was absolutely terrible (especially Ardoris). It had been like that for a few days. I just logged in now and its back to being utterly flawless.

    I am beginning to suspect that there may be a problem related to running the client for a long time without fully quitting out of it. Exiting to the login screen does not clear Bad Stuff that may have accumulated in memory, and reloading a scene only clears enough for you to be okay for a few minutes afterward.

    EDIT: never mind, fully quitting didn't help because I just had it happen again

    Any way one of you can send us a log or even just check the log size to see if it being spammed with exceptions? Your log file would be >5MB if so.

    Also, can you guys try turning off image effects and bloom and see if that improves things at all? We switched a few post effects last release which might have been the culprit.

    I've had no further graphics issues since I reported it last. Working perfectly with everything on full.
