Playing the 1.0 release on Warlock and started noticing major FPS dips when using Chthonic Fissures around large waves of enemies. The issue was especially bad when playing through some Monoliths with one additional person in the party. I have seen other reports of this same issue on the discord, but wanted to see if it could be addressed by the devs and if there are any current solutions. Thanks! Here is the build I was using, certain combinations of skill nodes might be causing/worsening the issue. Warlock build

Iv been noticing this as well, my only toon so far was a bleed warlock that utilizes Fissure. Big time FPS fluctuations, I turned down reflections and lighting settings to try and remedy it, and with my laptops specs are still able to run the game decently enough. But it definitely needs some optimizations if you ask me.

I’d say start with Windows optimization then looking at your system.
I don’t think people realize that when it says minimum system requirements, that just because what you have a better than it will run great.
Look at Path of Exile…
Nahh when I have a 3070, i5-11400f, 32GB of ram I get 2 fps when I’m queueing with a warlock as soon as they put their fissure down lol also at peak my ram goes up to 10GB of usage from the normal 5~6GB
Same issue here I have 4060, I also never play in a group, it is especially bad when enemies are spamming cold spells, might just be a coincidence but there you go, literally drops to 1 fps. I do use bleed and cold conversion in the build, that could be part of the issue.
Also saying optimize your windows… I mean I don’t have to optimize my windows for any other games that have 3x requirements, of Last Epoch maybe it is actually the game, just a thought.

Hm my low ass setup runs fine with fissure on medium settings an 0 fps issues at stable 75 fps.
I tried it jut now for about 1 hour.
The fps drop is still there but instead of going to 1 it sort of halves, for example I am in an area where running around with groups of enemies and not casting I get around 100-120 fps, I cast fissure, the fps is now 60, I cast chaos bolt it is now 50.
It is way better than 1 fps but I think there may be a few other problems with the skill.
Really appreciate the link though cheers man.
