Black Screen -> Low FPS problem

[NZ_Player]

disable screenspace ambient occlusion
disable all physx for everyone but yourself
disable or lower to mid others spell effects


youre running out of resources, lower the effects and this will stop happening.

My PC is not that bad and runs things like BF3 on max no problem so yea. I mean, this only happens occasionally! It's not like it does this all the time. I run 60+ FPS most the time for long stretches then SOMETHING produces this problem. This last time, I was the ONLY person in the area; there was no one around at all to produce effects. Just three NPCs I fought and killed. I spent the whole evening (10+ hours) in a 50+ player zerg with full effects going on on high settings and it never happened once. Then I went to do lvl 45 quest and it happened 3x in a row then stopped when I went back to the fate grind zerg.

I firmly believe this is some sort of bug. As to the trigger, I can't figure it out...hum.
