As of the the recent update I have been experiencing frequent Game Client Freezing and unable to generate a log to find the cause of the issue. It always occurs on one character when cleaving demons with my BLU friend for RoE to get Ambuscade KI, always the same character, never happens to friend or my other character.

The game always freezes, then becomes unresponsive and never responds if I wait, forcing me to just close the client.

I have never had any issues running the game at all on this PC which is still relatively new and in prime condition.

The problems literally just started after the May Version Update.

I have tried File Checks as well as a 100% Full Reinstall of the game. The issue remains the same and I am unsure how to fix the problem.

Can anybody help me out, please? Thanks in advance.

Hey, thanks a ton! I'll turn it off and see if the issue occurs again. Will update the thread before I head to sleep.

I came to post this, figured it was the new NVIDIA drivers since it just started when I came back in April. I'll try to unload Guildwork and see if that helps when I get home from work.

I downloaded the previous driver for the card and it's not much worse than it was.
