I've only encountered this problem once and it happened at Tiamat.

Strangely, been getting a lot of game crashes as well, after last week's patch. No idea why. And happens often, if I alt+Tab out and back, or if my internet disconnects. Although other circumstances also have been leading to the crash. It does not directly crash to desktop, though; more of a game lock-down/freeze, and requires me to manually close the game due to its unresponsive state (Not-responding status).
Anyone experience this or have any solutions? Considering re-installing

I have been experiencing this in the Tiamat fight also.

An issue similar to this used to be caused by a memory leak associated with physics particles, but even with that turned off I am still dropping to 1fps, or less... at times fighting Tiamat. It seems to happen when the green dragon breathes and we pop our dragon soul gems, but it could just be coincidence.

Try it anyway though. Turn off post-processing and make max physics particles (or something like that) 0.

I am seeing this issue too. The Tiamat fight seems to go smooth until people start popping any color soul gem during the breath attack phase. My FPS drops to unplayable and then it takes a good few minutes to recover. I can die and slowly manage my way back to the campfire but I am still having low FPS. It will eventually clear up and I can go back into combat... then rinse and repeat. This happens both on my laptop AND PC.

Very annoying. I used to play this game fine on very high settings, now it looks like total <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> because of Tiamat.
