Severe FPS Drops & High CPU Usage Since "The Edge of Fate"

Hi everyone, Since the latest Destiny 2 update The Edge of Fate, I’ve been experiencing major performance issues that weren’t present before the patch. Specifically: [b]FPS Drops:[/b] Before the update, the game ran smoothly with stable FPS. Now I’m getting significant drops, especially in areas with a lot of effects or players. It feels noticeably more unstable. [b]High CPU Usage:[/b] I’m also seeing very high CPU usage, hovering around 90%, whereas before the update it was around 50%. This is abnormal for my system and seems to directly impact performance. [u]My system specs:[/u] [b]GPU:[/b] NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti [b]CPU:[/b] AMD Ryzen 5 5600X [b]RAM:[/b] 16 GB DDR4 [b]OS:[/b] Windows 11 (fully updated) Here’s what I’ve tried so far: - Made sure all drivers (GPU, chipset, etc.) are fully up to date - Reinstalled the game - Verified game files via Steam Unfortunately, none of this has resolved the issue. On top of that, I’m now experiencing a serious crash after around 5+ hours of playtime: the game completely freezes, with no error code. The screen locks up, the game stops responding, and I have to force close it via Task Manager, since even the whole PC becomes unresponsive for a while. Is anyone else experiencing similar problems? Has Bungie acknowledged this issue or provided any workaround? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, SLeeVA
