Client NOT RESPONDING - results in having to X-out / Linkdead

[Mac Drettj]

As of the recent patch my client will just randomly lock up, turn white (not responding) and never recover. I have to X-out which results in being linkdead in game, and waiting for the character to pop out etc. This happens at the worst times possible, usually the moment I am engaged in PvP on red server, or as a pull comes. I am only noticing it on my epic mage (pet up)... maybe that has something to do with it (?) or maybe too many spell graphics, no idea.

I'm noticing it often. It happens maybe once every 1-2 hours if I had to guess.

I checked the forums and don't see anything about it... I surely cannot be the only person whose all-of-a-sudden having client issues am I?

This has never been a problem in my last few years playing here.
