Lag and System Settings Before and After Anniversary Event

Prior to the Anniversary event launching I was getting smooth fluid play with my settings generally set to medium high. Keys were smooth, raid was smooth, no issues with lag or delays… Since the anniversary event launched it’s been nothing but delays and lag no matter what I’m doing. I’ve had to turn the settings all the way as low as they can go and there’s only minor improvement. I’m on an M1 Max MacBook Pro, 64gb ram, 1tb HD with plenty of space to spare! Whatever they changed or implemented in the anniversary patch feels the worst it’s been today Tue, Nov 5th 2024. It’s not only ruining the game but my dps and performance has dropped to where I can’t run keys or raid!

Not sure what the problem might be, and not having it on my own Mac Mini M1. However, in the past I have had updates to WoW change my graphics settings, and this has caused similar problems for me.

Have you checked your main graphic settings? I’d recommend making sure you’re still playing in Fullscreen mode, and that your resolution and render scale are matched up. (In other words, your render scale should be at 100%.) The worst performance issues I’ve had are when I’m running the game at less than 100% render.
