Characters have spots on skin

Starting about 2weeks ago, at time characters (all of them) have spots on them. Dark or red blotches on their faces and such. A game restart was fixing it until today where 2 fresh starts have immediately gone to "splotchy mode". I've been since fiddling with graphics settings to no avail.
Oh and also, the game has been unbearably choppy since last patch or so. Not rubberbandy or laggy, just choppy. All I've done was increase my virtual memory a bit and again, nothing helps, not even min graphics settings.

If your post is anything like, "I have a sandwich so you can't be starving" it's time to rethink posting. ~thlaylierah

So realistically, you only need to have the exact number of doffs that you need. ~leadme2kirk

You, um, might want a purple DOFF doctor to look at that. :P
Joking aside, I had something similar happen on another MMO, and traced the problem to a video card that was running hot. Have you taken a look at yours in action, by any chance?
Good advice, I've had Blue Screens of Death for same reason. Not sure how that could suddenly start though, I've been playing consistently a good long time. Might explain the choppyness too. Never the less, I'd like to get a Dev to respond if this a know issue or not...

Why haven't you posted some already?

I've previously had the BSODs as well. In my case the video card I was using was aging and in its struggles was heating up, causing video issues and BSODs. What I've seen of your description seems consistent.
If you have the opportunity, consider borrowing a friend's game-quality video card with drivers (preferrably one equal to or better than yours), and temporarily swap with yours (assuming you're not going to void any warranties by doing it yourself). Run the game again and try to duplicate the problem. If it occurs, its probably not the video card. If it does not...
Going by this logic, it should not happen until game has been running X amount of time. I will watch that closer now. Also, for some rzn PrtSc is now giving all black images for screenshots, odd.

Easy to explain. Since season 9, the game engine is "broken" in some way and it pulls the videocards a lot more than before. This translates in high temperatures and overheating videocards. We are in the summer so, if a videocard that was at 60c before, now it will be starting to reach numbers of 70c+ and in 1 month that number will be 85c. Only because cryptic messed up the game engine after season 9. Sufice to say, any other game will not even make the videocard to reach even 70c in summer. Since cryptic ignored the performance issues after season 9, a lot of people will experiment broken videocards, and high temps, and a lot of bad news. This needed to happen, since it was common sense.
Hey hey now!
BAD ZOMBIE BAD GO BACK TO THE GROUND!
Seriously folks, if a thread hasn't been responded to in 30 days please don't bring it back up
