Frequent Crashes

Hello everybody,

since the new Patch went live i am experiencing a lot of crashes and would like to know if others have similiar experiences.

Heres some of my experiences so far:
On Tuesday i made a build and went into Cyrodiil. As soon as i found a fight i immediately crashed. I also crashed when i came to close a big group of players.

I also crashed at least 2 times just standing or jumping around in a city.

Yesterday i played one of the new Dungeons 'The Cauldron' with friends and crashed on the last boss around 6 or 7 times until i gave up and did not complete the dungeon. I changed my graphics to low but that did not helped at all.

My crashes go straight to the desktop with a crash report window.
The cpu, gpu, storage and ram usage is normal as well as my temperatures, so I dont think its a hardware issue.
I am using the steam client.

Since i cannot narrow down the issue and havent seen many complaining about crashes i just wanted to ask if this is something more people experience or not.

Thank you and have a great day :)

    Got 😖 send to login screen while fixing character.

    😂 Hit message limit trying to cancel battleground cause I was in dungeon already. This sent me to login screen.

    Randomly crashed in dungeon after troll fight.

    But yeah check connection first and then do repair just in case

    NO! Do not do this! It's the servers not the game on your Hard Drives.

    Crash report window isn't the server. Ser sends you back to title screen. It happens after a bad patch update.

    Also make sure you are using minion to update all your addons.

    If the troubleshooting suggestions posted so far have not helped, you can find additional troubleshooting in our help article below.

    What do I do if ESO is crashing with the error "ESO has stopped working"?

    I've had no crashes before the patch and no crashes after. But then I run a super clean PC.

    I've been getting a few random crashes to desktop, especially when logging in a character, like you, it seems to be something that's happened over the last few days. PC/EU.

    I am having a lot of crashes since the new patch - around 5 a day.

    They tend to happen in battles and when harvesting crafting nodes, but sometimes they just seem random.

    I also run a very clean PC.

    Edit: I also tried a complete reinstall, and that didn't work for me.

    I just found a repeatable way of getting a crash. There's a spot in Rimmen where merely standing there looking in the right direction and going AFK for a few minutes causes the crash repeatably for me at least.
