Weapon Swapping Crashing Game In Maps

Hello,

I'm playing a pathfinder that uses weapon swaps to summon minions.


As of today after the latest windows update I'm crashing upon entering a map and using my weapon swap to summon (3) Brutes.

If I go into the map with the brutes already summoned, and use a weapon swap it doesn't crash and I can continue through the map...


I've duplicated this a dozen times now. The crash occurs ONLY if I don't enter the map with my minions spawned. If I enter the map without them spawned and attempt to spawn them with the swap; I crash.

This has happened today on various maps. I don't believe it's exclusive to any map and seems to be a weird bug regarding the interaction loop?


Please let me know if there is more information I can provide that may be helpful in diagnosing this crash.

I did some testing on this bug and found a workaround that works. in second post of this thread https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3692740/page/1#p25857931

Interesting. So it must have something to do with the string of interactions that come with summoning the minions? I'm curious if I uncheck all the "active" skills I have if this crash would still occur.

As long as I've already summoned the minions prior to entering the map there is no crash and I can continue weapon swapping within the map no problem; regardless of "active skills" on wepset1 or wepset2.

i can crash it in my h/o

Yea crashed twice today out of 10 total maps, both times on same map(Steaming Springs).

Excited to see if the patch addresses this specific crash.

This was not addressed in patch as I've just crashed twice in a row. :)

Game is currently unplayable on this character as its an instant crash every time I weapon swap, either while using raise shield or X (weapon swap). While in hideout and tested multiple maps (crimson shores, river)

Further testing because I love this character and couldn't stand to not be able to play it...

TLDR:

After manually toggling all weapon sets and "resetting" both sets of passives by clicking them on/off; I'm no longer crashing in hideout OR in maps.


---------------
Testing that resulted in the above conclusion.

After logging back in from a crash and loading up Skill Page, NONE of the skills were toggled on while I was holding weapon set 2. Leading me to the conclusion it nullified the swap+crash because the game couldn't perform the action and satisfy requirements.

ALLOCATION OF WEAPON SETS INCORRECTLY ADJUSTING PASSIVES ON/OFF = CAUSING CRASH:DUE TO LACK OF SUFFICIENT SPIRIT
