Recommendations to reduce stagger or slowdown during larger fights

[Orontes]

Per the thread title: any recommendations to reduce staggering, or slowdowns, or things moving toward slide show hell during fights?

Try enabling "VFXdisable" option in the Settings > Server tab.

If it's not enough, reduce "play effects on :" from "all" to "party" but this setting probably wont change much (you will want to still see all ground effects even with VFXdisable enabled).

To reduce crashes and stutter during large fights and abuse of blast potions, you can use a macro to disable your combat log :
/script TextLogSetEnabled("Combat", false)

And to re-enable :
/script TextLogSetEnabled("Combat", true)

The macro will however disallow addons and logs to record any damage/kills/death/healing and such, but it will greatly improve fluidity. I recommend using it when hitting a keep/fort lord to greatly improve frame smoothness.

All good suggestions. Thank you
