Dominus still crashing your game YesImMad

it's not 1% Sneaky.

after being among the first to report the Dominus disconnection problem, and going out of my way to make sure GGG know about it (including an email to Chris and other staff members, with a proposed solution) - I must say they fixed it, but not entirely.

what's more, in my case the rare occasions there is a problem, no longer end up in a disconnection to log-in screen, but a full-blown client crash with an error message from Windows.

there is still work to be done.

maybe by "1%" you meant the people who will get to try a 78 Palace map. that I agree.

I have the same problem, and I believe it is related with the weather effects/ moving clouds.

Dont know the main reason; bad optimization (none in this case I guess), memory leak, compatibility problems with video card, or just level design based on very high system requirements..

And I am still saying, most of the issues with the dominus fight were fixed. Only a small part of the playerbase has STILL issues. Which makes it hard to make out where the problem is.

Sorry dude, but everyone I talked STILL has huge FPS loss problem in dominus fight. Many still get kicked to login screen at various points, and there is a problem with something in the next 3-5 seconds after dominus dies. It may be his death animation, weather effect remove, or gemling queen/portal summon. But there IS a problem there.

We need the option to "Turn OFF weather effects" from graphic options. At least until they sort it out.

A few days ago I was trying to kill Dominus in a party and the client would crash every time I entered his location again after rejoining the party. After maybe 4 times I said screw it and started a new map and ran up there myself to fight him alone. Didn't crash once, so I figured it has something to do with having more people up there.

I was going to fight Dominus in Nemesis yesterday with my Scion for the first time, but decided not to because I didn't know if it's a lag sensitive battle with cheap-shots (like Vaal and his Smash) or a crazy gear check.

So I tried him with my Mara in Standard Cruel with a group and holy crap that fight was a lagfest! The FPS drops were very annoying, not to mention that he actually hits pretty hard with some moves and right after we downed him to go into the final form and stage, the screen froze (single frame stuck) and I got kicked out to the login screen after about a minute. Tried to find the group again quickly but to no avail.

It's just poor optimization for this fight and less so for the new areas as a whole (they also have some issues but none of them are THIS bad). The rest of the game is fine. Too many effects are present or firing off and too many enemies are there during the battle. (and characters as well as their effects if you're playing in a group)

I want to play with my Scion but Dominus seems tough enough without lag and I don't want to get her killed because of Lagzilla's alliance with Dominus.
