Constant crash melee fighting Suturah (Withered Hand quest)

The game constantly crashes when melee fighting Suturah at the end of the Withered Hand quest.
It happens very quickly, usually after 2-3 seconds in fight, the process eso64.exe stops responding, have to kill it manually using the task manager.
This is only with this fight, I had no crash whatsoever before.
I heard that if you can use ranged attacks (spells) you can avoid the bug; seems to only happend with melee attacks.
(I"m in Windows 10).

    I'm getting this too. It's only happening when Suturah is almost defeated. I was using a ice staff and staff abilities. 😰. The PC is running an i7-7700HQ with 16gb RAM, nVidia 1070 and installed on an SSD - I own the Summerset Collectors Edition.

    Just an update: This happened using a greatsword as well. I also abandoned and restarted the quest to choose a different companion for the fight. I used the prince first and then the thronekeeper. I did not bother trying with Talia yet.

    I've tried numerous times. It only happens against Suturah. You can always get past the minions and the daughter with ease.

    Sadly, this was not addressed in the PC patch 6.1.5 :( I tried again after downloading the update, this time with a dual-wield setup and with the Throne Keeper. Crashed during Suturah fight. I'm Ebonhart Pact, but I need to finish this to move on with Caldwell's Silver.

    **Update** Here is the fix for this from ZOS direct. **Solved**

    It's an issue they are having with Lich enemies. Change your view to 3rd person until after the fight is finished. It worked for me today.
