Patch 2.3.3

Frame Optimisation Beta Test

This patch introduces an opt-in beta test for the new multithreaded engine features that should significantly improve game performance for most users.

Frame rate increases are most significant when there are a lot of entities in the scene. This means situations with large amounts of combat should have much more stable frame rates. Do not expect significant increases in frame rate in non-combat situations.

If you are GPU-bound you shouldn't expect significant increases in frame rate.

To enable this, you need to add "--experimental-frame-optimizations" to the Path of Exile command line.

Please remember that this is a beta test. If you experience crashes or other issues with this feature turned on, we want to hear about it.

This feature is expected to be turned on by default in the 2.4.0 expansion release.

Bug Fixes:

Fixed a bug where the Beyond Sight prophecies could not be completed in a Ceremonial map.

Fixed a bug where killing Bameth, Shifting Darkness would not count for the "From the Void" prophecy if spawned by the "Beyond Sight IV" prophecy.

Fixed a bug with the appearance of the Perandus Weapon Effect introduced in 2.3.2.

Fixed an issue where Whisperer's Attendant stopped using Ball Lightning.
