The Best League & Expansion in Years, with a caveat...

Server stability and performance.

TL;DR -- Amazing patch, please fix.

I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here but I think these are the last gripes I would have about the state of the game.

All other concerns were, surprisingly, addressed in 3.28. Thank you for fixing the end-game.

It's imperative that you guys do something about performance.

With 80-100% Delirium, Wisps, Mirage, overlapping Breaches and character skills, the game stops drawing the graphics and I have to exit out completely if it doesn't crash. Not only this, but my CPU is screaming and it's to the point now where the game feels unplayable with a certain amount of juice on a map. Forget about opening multiple Breaches, sometimes it happens on accident and it's an infuriating slideshow experience to say the least.

I've also found that a particular Delirium Demon modifier causes severe lag, and it's kind of obvious why. The effect teleports a monster to your location and a Kinetic Blast-like explosion happens. This, combined with something like Ambusher from HH, will brick your performance.

Also, another reason to remove Ambusher -- When your character teleports and you've got returning projectiles, this causes severe lag... I'm assuming because the projectiles are trying to return to the player whose coordinates change every couple of seconds.

We also need some sort of filter or slider in the options for Delirium. My performance gets better when I pick up a Bismuth ore. Why is that? Why can't we replicate that effect for the entirety of Delirium?

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for actually doing something great for Path of Exile. I was worried for a couple of years but it seems we're on our way out of the bad times. I was irate and hateful. I've played this game for years and it's a big part of my life. To see it be neglected and fall into a state of ruin really pissed me off.

I apologize for my terrible attitude.
