Path of Exile 2

Stuttering when attacking
Playing in the Dawn of the Hunt.
My game is stuttering every time I use an ability or attack. It very jarring and I'm getting to the point of not playing until a major update / fix.
I didn't have this problem last season. I am going the same build as last season with spark mage and was lucky enough to find a Dusk Vigil Staff that I had early on last season as well. The only thing that I've changed is that I picked Raging Spirits instead of the frost armor passive. I didn't notice this issue with huntress when I was playing, I made it to act 3 then quit, but I did notice a lot of what felt like a massive lag spike back to where I was a couple of seconds before when I would use the whirlwind ability every so often. Not all the time. And I haven't been having any issues with lag at all.
Mostly was curious if anyone else had this specific issue or something close to it.

I found the issue. The issue is with the Dusk Vigil Staff. For some reason it causes a lot of stuttering when in use. Probably the ember fusillade ability is causing issues. When i took the staff off and tested using skills I didn't stutter. I will reply if i find any other issues or if it ended up being a false positive.

Stuttering is not about items but overall poor optimalization.
If you press F1 you will notice your cpu and shaders spikes in fight with mobs and your fps goes down from 100+ to 20-30 in 0.5sec and goes back to 100+

What you can do is go to %appdata% folder, find path of exile 2 and delete dx12 and vulkan shader folders, after that open nvidia control panel and increase shader cache size to 100gb.

This halped me a little, im still having stutters but not that much

Yeah they def need to optimize this game a lot, in hideout I'm capped at 120 fps, but in certain map areas with monsters my fps tanks down to the 20s

It's quite the gap
