Apex Of Sacrifice Crashing Issue

I'm currently in the Delve league, tried to run the Apex using the four Sacrifice pieces a few times in this league and noticed a persistent crash issue that (for me) has a 100% occurrence rate. This did not occur at all in the previous league with Alva and the temple.

If I proceed to run through the area and clear it too fast (i'm level 84) it crashes. Every time it crashes, i'm guaranteed to crash again at some point after re-entering the Apex after restarting my game and logging back in, and every time this happens I lose a portal to the area, and eventually I will not have any portals left to complete the Apex.

If I die and re-enter the area, it can and will crash at any point while i'm walking through the parts of the map that i've already cleared, though it most often happens while going through doors that load the next area. The one that seems to trigger a crash the most is the door after the second boss fight within the apex (the three unique exiles) that loads into the third section just before Aztiri.

One thing that i've noticed is that the game sometimes seems to think that I haven't died yet, because every now and again it rewinds my progress through the map to make me re-clear portions of the map that i've already cleared.

Sometimes a crash doesn't happen until I get to the final boss room. Then it will either crash upon entering, or it will crash if I die and try to re-enter the apex. As of yet I have not finished the final boss fight, so I cannot say for sure what will happen if I left the area afterwards and returned.

Hi EspritFoudre,
