    Elegon issues/lag/computer overheat

    Who else has been having issues with elegon since the past 2 weeks.

    My Graphics cards overheats to crap on this fight now, no idea what blizzard did. My PC runs any other game perfectly fine on max settings and hardly goes over 60 degrees, i raid 25 man no other fight does this.

    Yeah I have issues when doing it on raidfinder. However.. this has always been the case when the raid pops bloodlust and stormlash and you have minimum one army of the dead going out. If that happens (90% of time), I am out until phase 2 channel begins.

    I've done LFR Elegon twice this week and haven't had any issues at all. The final burn phase is very graphically intense, so naturally my FPS drops a little bit, but never lower than 25 or so, compared to my usual 35-50 fps in 25man combat.

    I have never had any issues with Elegon. Sure I get some small FPS drops when fighting him. But it is so small it is not an issue.

    Guildies just complained about this aswell, getting major fps issues when the fight starts.

    Your fps should not drop during the first couple of phases on elegon. However, during the last phase(after 2x spark phases) when you all stack on him pop Hero stormlash etc etc there have been fps drops since week 1, i imagine it might be all that coupled with the storm going around outside the platform. some have it worse than others, i normally go from 60fps stable to ~30-40fps during last phase. But i got everything on ultra gfx settings, im sure if i turned it down to high it would be no problem.

    I had issues on Elegon where frame rate dropped to 5 - then froze for a few seconds then back to somewhat normal. It's been happening in the new zones as well. Computer has been overheating and frame rate inconsistency. Very annoying.

    Had this problem in an lfr earlier in the week. Spirit kings and Will I was in the mid 50s for FPS. Elegon I was right about 5 when the central area was active. When it wasn't usual FPS. Really unsure why.

    Its an addon issue.

    had this problem on one of my toons this week, assumed it was an addon not yet properly updated
    i7 2600k (standard clocks)
    7870 card
    8g ram

    again this only happened on the one toon, my warlock in specific so im guessing it was an addon

    There was an issue with Elegon where fps went all to hell when you stood on the platform. It happened particularly with some Radeon video cards. The solution was to turn shadow quality UP to good. Weird, but this cleared it up for me. Primordius also showed the same problem, to a lesser extent (probably because the floor there is simiarly removable.)

    If you are seeing something happening more recently, it may be a different problem.

    Was there really a need to necro this thread? When 5.2 came out lots of addons where still out of date that, combined with increased size of combat log, didn't make the fight easier to run. However running the fight with Shadow Quality on High+ improves performance, just as Osmeric said.

    I am aware of the shadows fix and google came up with this. It just happened all of a sudden but i will check my add ons and see how it goes.

    Last tier i did heroic elegon with no problems whatsoever on the same laptop, running on ultra settings, and getting around 40-50 FPS in 10 man and in 25 LFR. Ever since the launch of the new patch whenever i do elegon on LFR/Normal/Heroic my fps drops to about 4 or 5 now.

    So i know its nothing to do with my computer at least. They changed something.

    Did you try the shadow setting tweak? That fixes the problem introduced in 5.2 for certain graphics chips.

    Forgive me but wouldnt it cause more issues to turn up graphics? currently my shadow settings is on low, and id be glad to try it, but idk just seems odd. Would setting it to 'good' work?

    Ive been having the same issues with primordius' room, and dark animus' room as well with tragic fps drops. The primordius room is an easy fix: stay out of the middle of the room lol. But durumu/primordious/animus rooms all have given me some very annoying play experiences as well.

    I get lag but apparently if you turn up shadows it fixes the problem, haven't tried it myself like.

    Yes, it doesnt make sense, but turn up your shadow detail. It has worked for many many people. Both elegon's and primo's rooms have floors which disappear, which is the only thing I can fathom which could be the root of the problem. Kinda like how if you die in the middle of primo's room, your skellie takes on a strange bluish color.

    Why elegon's room was fine at release, and now causes these problems is strange tho.
