Lag/Freeze when rouge exile guarding strongboxes spawns

Is it only me or is it normal for the game to lag or freeze when a rouge exile spawns because of a strongboxes?when ever i activate a strongbox guarded by a rouge exile i would lag and just die almost instantly. Is there anyway to prevent or minimise the lag or freeze?
having the same problem. im now too scared to open them... playin HC :(
This is usually down to the time it takes to load the assets for the MTX worn by the Exiles.

Are you running off an SSD?

Massive thanks to GGG for producing such a fun and engaging game, it has taken up faaaaaaar too much of my life over the last 5 years.

Best of luck in the future!
It's not just you.

I run out of a RAM drive, much faster than any SSD, and it's just the same. If your video card isn't too great and you stutter when meeting new monsters (such as when rogue exiles appear just off the screen), you're gonna have a bad time with these exile guarded boxes. This has to do with the GPU needing to compile new shaders, the little effects codes which are then stored in your shader cache for later (faster) re-use.

I wonder if ggg can make it loads everything upon identify strongbox...
that could solve the load lag
