Anyone else noticing significant frame rate drops when questing in murkmire?

It's the only place in the game where I have noticed a low frame rate, almost to the point of it being unplayable.

I suspect it's all the trees. shadows, water reflections :/ It is a swamp after all.

my pc specs are quite good, and as i say it's the only place I have a problem.

cpu is i5 -6600 3.30ghz 16 gig ram and gf GTX 1060 6 gig

    I've seen it on the forums a bit and some friends have spoken about it as well. Seems to be a widespread problem.

    Official word from ZOS.
    Thanks all, we're aware and working on making some improvements for an incremental patch.

    Edit: "Mac support" That is why I could not find it.

    I didn't actually note where it was, I just remembered seeing in the Dev Tracker that Gina had posted somewhere and went there to find it. :sweat_smile:
    I don't think I've ever looked in Mac Support myself.

    ZOS has a history of designing content that their engine can't keep up with. There are certain places in particular that will tank FPS, especially with shadows on. I have a 7820x running at 4.9 GHz and a 1080 Ti and still dip below 60 in many areas. That's with shadows and reflections off.

    It's crazy. I might have to really turn down the settings if I want to quest in Murkmire. It's quite a shame.

    Can confirm that Murkmire zone is into sth. I was dropping below 30 fps in there, which doesn't happen anywhere else. Even on the most troubling ones like HoF Commitee i constantly sit above 50 fps. Hope it gets fixed soon, as these conditions are not really fun at all.

    They nerfed frame rate on Macs. This was the Nerfmire patch, after all
