Combat Sound Effects Distorted

[Narissa]

I am having the same issue Audio is heavily stuttering in combat, its gotten worse infact, its somehow gotten even louder.. Its extremely annoying and it puts me off even wanting to do anything..

Problem is now, if I turn on DX9, the game will blackscreen every now and then and literally load forever and then just crash.. which means helllooo queue.

This sucks, its clear its coming from the game, I've tried 4 different headsets and speakers, played other games (no issues) and tested the audio on my PC.. This only started happening when I dl'd endwalker.

Edit: Its also happening on occasion, outside of combat aswell, in cities and in housing zones
