horrible frame rates on one character, but not others

[skarlorn]

The Issue:

While attending a raid on Filbus, I suffered terrible, laggy frame rates. We're talking like 1 frame per 3 seconds.

I have also noticed this reduction in FPS while on Filbus in other, non-raid environments, such as going into Chardok vs going into Chardok on another toon.

-I'm playing EQ on a fairly powerful gaming PC. It's not spiffy by 2018 standards, but I used to play EQ on a far worse machine without this issue.

-I'm not downloading elf porn or running any intensive programs.

-I adjusted in game frames and other stuff during the raid event, to no avail

Has anyone had this issue? My EQ is installed on a separate HD than the operating system, but all my games are installed this way and its never caused performance issues.

I just don't understand why raiding would destroy my FPS, when I was able to do it for years on worse computers.

Thanks for your thoughts prayers and hoping to help
