Good morning,
currently I have a problem that when I play my shaman as Ele (which is my main specc) I have regular game freezes when I use some spells (the game doesn’t respond and even after an hour it doesn’t goes on, so I have to ALT+F4 the program). These crashes are happening since about 3 weeks and only as Elemental. If I play Enhancement or any other char I don’t have any problems.
The spells mostly triggering it are totems, covenants spell (tried all of them) and also if I get hit with some enemy spells. I have about 3-4 freezes in one M+ key or every 2.-3. boss try/kill inside a raid. Sometimes it happens also at the target dummy.
Until now I tried it with fresh graphic drivers, used Scan & Repair, played with a plane WoW (disabled all Addons and Weak Auras), switched between the DirectX modes, changed the RAM and SSD, installed my windows and WoW completely fresh, even tried a race change. Nothing worked.
Some info about my shaman: uses 4-Set, double leggy, tried different trinkets and has the caster weapon of Rygelon (if this buff could effect it)
To be honest I don’t have any other idea what I should try.
Please help me, I invested to much in this char that I play since vanilla.
Sounds about the same as what I just started encountering today. Started doing some M+ keys today and just randomly the game hangs a few times per dungeon. Had it happen in Streets of Wonder at the relic pack before the first boss as well as the relic pack near Menagerie. Also had it happen in the mailroom boss. Did Mists after that and had it happen during the first boss just after the tree went down.
Also noticed that on the first two cases the game also instantly disconnected on the first relog attempt. The only difference from yesterday in my gear is that I turned my 265 shoulders into tier with the catalyst and thus have all 5 pieces tier.
Yeah thats something that could be related, the tier set. I will try later today if it has anything to do with it.
The problem is also: there is no real crash log for it. Windows says just (in its event logs) “unknown error”…
ok I tested it, its the 4set bonus. With just the 2set I could do 2 keys and 3 raidbosses today…
Someone in the US forums helped and it looks that he found the solution. It was an script that was triggerin it.
Look at this post: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/game-freezescrashes-but-just-as-ele-shaman/1218839/4
After following the instruction I could run one lfr wing and one key without freezes.
