Game Freezes in Dungeons

Every dungeon, sometimes every other dungeon, my game locks up for 4 to 6 seconds at a time randomly. Mostly during boss fights. It’s not predictable and it causes problems in mythics where a second lockup can cause deaths.

Everything is updated and this has been happening since Dragonflight launched.
I’ve tried uninstalling/reinstalling WoW, Running repairs, uninstalling/reinstalling Drivers…
It happens with or without addons.
My settings are what are recommended, shadows down, ray tracing off…

I’ve tried everything and it keeps happening.

Please advise.

I’ve been having the same issue since 10.1 dropped. It seems to be when mobs and bosses do an AoE ability in both M+ and Raids. I believe it might have to do with DX12 because when I went back to DX11, the 4 - 6 second freezes stopped happening.

Unfortunately, my performance takes a hit due to using DX11, so I’m hoping there’s some fix for the DX12 issues.

I’ll try it, but i do believe it was happening with DX11 as well. Will try and report back

Update: Game still freezes sometimes, and now it crashes more often. Like 4 times in 4 hours.

Also, my Bnet has been getting an error and forcing me to login repeatedly.

Not a great “Solution”.
