Optimization Request for Steam Deck Users

Dear Path of Exile 2 Development Team,

First of all, I want to thank you for creating such an amazing game. I've thoroughly enjoyed playing it and appreciate the depth and creativity it offers.

However, I've noticed significant performance issues while playing on the Steam Deck. In party gameplay during intense battles with multiple casts, the FPS can drop to as low as 10, even with minimum graphics settings and FSR Ultra Performance. While this setting helps with performance, the resulting visuals are extremely blurry, making the game almost unplayable.

For comparison, Diablo 4, with higher graphical fidelity, runs at a stable 50-60 FPS on the Steam Deck during full-party combat without severe drops.

Bumping this as I would also love to see the steam deck targeted as a low end performance goal

I have done quite a bit of testing to find the right settings. If you're interested and still struggling with your own system, I found a decent set of settings for the meantime (assuming GGG is interested in properly supporting the Deck).
