⚠️ [FIXED] UI Freeze when opening Transmog / Mount tab - War Within 11.1.7

Hey everyone,

I recently encountered a weird issue after patch 11.1.7 in The War Within, where the game would momentarily freeze (1–2 seconds) whenever I opened tabs like Transmog, Mounts, or Collections in general.

After some testing (and seeing others mention it too on US forums), I found that the issue was completely gone after switching the Graphics API from DirectX 12 to DirectX 11.

So if anyone else is experiencing UI-related stutters or freezes, give this a try:

System > Graphics > Graphics API > DirectX 11

Hopefully Blizzard will address this in a future patch, but for now this workaround seems to help.

Let me know if this helped you too :raised_hands:

— Cheers,

Hi,

That’s not a fix, that is a band aid… Blizzard should fix the enormous amounts of issues with directx12. Their dx12 dll is so outdated
