Crashing Blood Mage A2

My game has been running fine since launch, but it seems like it is now unplayable for me.

I have recently ascended to Blood Mage and in A2, in Deshar, I can't play more than 2 minutes before my game crashes back to desktop. No error popup.

It seems to be happening ONLY when my character is stunned by a specific type of mob.

I've tried every fix and none works.

Did you ever find a fix?

I recently did my ascension and went blood mage - did all 3 at the same time ... and instantly started crashing w/in 2 minutes of combat - usually when I get hit.

I went to the hood guy and refunded those points and I stop crashing. I can't put any ascension points in or I crash - so I mean, there's a workaround for me, but it's not ideal.
