What are those crashes?

https://reddit.com/link/1l3tp2f/video/hv4zlhvtf25f1/player Hi folks, first of all, this is my first time playing POE2, and I've been facing this little crash recently, I didn't bother about it too much because the whole world crashes too, but the map getting the fog of war back is pretty lame, what could it be?

Is it just me or do all the elemental casters seem to forget fire is a thing?

Does anyone else find it a bit weird that none of the 'elemental specialist' Evoker Monk and Stormweaver Sorc who in their flavour descriptions and selection screens advertise them master of the elements yet they have no nodes that specifically effect Fire yet both of them have 2 Asc Point nodes each for both Cold and Lightning? Like Fire is already at the bottom when it comes to the elements, have only 1 ailment (Ignition) as opposed to the 2 both Cold (Chill, Frozen) and Lightning (Shock, Electrocute) and even then it feels very undercooked even in terms of Supports Gems, Spirit Gems and Skills in general. I guess I am just kind salty because last season I played an Evoker hoping to spec into all 3 elements only to find out thats not really possible and then this season I wanted to make a Pyromancer for my alt and I can only seem to half ass it as a Sorc. I know Infernalist exists but again it has no fire specific nodes only general spell damage.

Stormweaver Shaper of Storms + Herald of Ice and Thunder

I was wondering if anyone has tried running: - Stormweaver's Shaper of Storms ascendancy node (all damage contributes to shock chance) - Herald of Ice - Herald of Thunder with Embitter (or Call of the Brotherhood) Would this work and make the Heralds trigger each other? If so, what weapon would you use? Maybe bow for Ice shot? Thank you!

Game stutter every 5s with CPU spike after running a few map

The game starts stuttering with huge fps drop every 5s like in the video after playing for awhile. I have found out that the only way to stop the stuttering is to quit the game and delete the shader cache folder every few maps.

what is the difference between Path of Exile 1 and Path of Exile 2

Damage conversion works in different way. In poe 1 you can have pure physical damage 2h axe, scale it with increase physical damage passive nodes, more physical damage support gems, and than convert all that damage into fire and scale it from increase fire/elemental damage passives. In poe 2 it will only scale from fire/elemental damage passives, and conversion will work only for base physical damage.
