Performance drops significantly on Malthael(1)Category: Technical SupportMarch-26-2014 8:37 AM PDT (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
While my computer isn't crashing on Malthael (like it is for some people)...it does begin to chug HARD on that fight.

I've no problem running the game Acts I - V. But even with all settings on their lowest selection, the Malthael fight chugs and my framerate drops to almost unplayable levels. I had to turn the difficulty down to normal just to finish him off and unlock adventure mode.

I'm guessing it has something to do with all the activity in the background during this battle, but I'm not sure as I know nothing of software development heheh.

Any suggestions? Or does this fight just need to be optimized further internally?

Neverhood,

Can you post some information about your computer? You can find this information in the Direct X Diagnostic Tool:

Click on Start
Click on Run
Type in: dxdiag (In Vista, type dxdiag in the search field)
Hit Enter or OK

Click on the Save All Information button at the bottom, and create a dxdiag text file, and copy and paste it ALL here.

Could you also post your D3Prefs.txt file? It's located in the My Documents\Diablo III folder.
