Path of Exile 2

Path of Exile 2

Lagging potions on Linux
So, GGG added mod on potions - on use you get 0,2-0,5 sec micro lag on screen. Also this mod somehow works on rare monsters when you kill them. For me its impossible to play, my build use mana all the time. Lag - missed shot - dead. Pls, GGG use Orb of Regret on those changes, save my ranger!

Tested on many distros, x11, wayland, nvidia - same stuff. When i press potion - it instantly attack my CPU with a spike. On day 1 game was perfect, runs better than PoE1. I didnt test it on standalone client. Does it have the same problem?

So, no help from community. I had to download stand alone version and test it. Same issue.

I've noticed that if you recover mana from well - no attack on CPU. Just a fact of using potion spikes CPU graphic.

More FPS makes this effect less visible (around 0.1sec), but its there!

Reminds me time of PoE 1, when you open chest, game sends 100 requests to a sound library, and then game explodes.

If you are getting killed due to a micro second delay in the game...you are waaay too squishy

1) Ye glass cannon ranger, as i said

2) Do not forget - that this lags STACKS. Example, drink potion add lag of 0,4 sec. During combat you need press mana 2 times. Thats 0,8 sec lag. You got hit somehow, you need to drink healing potion 3-4 time (insta recovery flask). Thats 0,8+1,6=2,4 sec. PLUS when elite die its another 0,4. ~3 sec of laggy picture, while bare visible effects of a ground of after death effect still happening.

Its not only sad about char dying. Your picture is flowing like a water and then BAAAAM - fking 3 sec lag. Wtf?

Ok huge update. Saw this topic - https://steamcommunity.com/app/2694490/discussions/0/830448205345874730/

This bug happens ONLY on my deadeye ranger. I have no idea why. No even single spike on any other character. W T F :duranceright:
Maybe try to rebuild shaders? It might be, that a shader is compiled on the fly all the time.

Or maybe activate this for once:
"shader pre caching" in Steam (Settings -> Downloads)
In Linux, it will download those every next day, but maybe its good to make it at least once and then deactivate again.

Dude, i reinstalled 3 different systems. Clear OS and Steam install. Redownloading 80 GB all the time, including shaders.

Today i tested Standalone client in Lutris. THERE IS NO SHADERS ISSUE THERE, ITS NOT A STEAM!

And why again do you scream at someone, when he tries to genuinely help you, but didn't hit the correct solution? Doesn't motivate me to help further... Good luck

Because people do not read, so they don't want to help. So CAPS = read carefully pls, not screaming

Any uniques that can cause this? Can't reproduce on my system

Only 1 unique Widow bow. I tried to unequip everything on ranger, gear, skills. Even changed bottles. Didn't unspec talant, cos no gold. But i've respeced my Merc(same 76 lvl and maps) and make almost the same talants on him - no bug at all. If this somehow connected to talant tree - it may be ascendancy(wind+close combat). But the thing is - everything was ok, till i get on maps. Campaign was disintegrated by unique bow and went fluent with mana spam. Then something happened...

CAPS is usually load speaking or screaming.

I read OP, but not much else. You should add your important info to OP then

And you can't know my intentions and your conclusion was wrong. I don't have this problem myself, but I want to see it sorted, in case I encounter it myself.

I have 80 ranger on ssf, can try to test exactly your setup if I can reproduce here of course.

No no no, you totally right. The problem is in my Kartoman K1 keyboard. I totally disable it before game launch and it helped. But sometimes it doesn't work when you disable it during game. Huh...

Nevermind, thanks for help kindly!
