FPS Drop Every 5 Minutes

[GalaxyMoose.9876]

Hi! I didn't know if anyone could help me with this or was having a similar problem. Since about a week ago my game drops down to 2 or 3 FPS every five minutes and then it goes back up to normal. It's not my internet because this is happening no matter what internet connection I'm on and I'm pretty sure it's not my computer because this computer is pretty new and I've never had this problem before. My only thought is maybe some update with the game or something has caused this? Just wondered if anyone else had experienced this or had any advice, it's basically made the game unplayable for me. Thanks!

I do have the same issue for about a week now. I run around with 150+ fps and suddenly my fps drop below 10. It's not like every 5 minutes for me but it happens regularly (multiple times a day). This is really frustrating because I basically only play PvP and if it happens the game is very likely lost.

I've only been logging in to get my dailies, but I've noticed that every time I've logged in over the past week the game is choppy. I'll log into an empty area and get maybe 40fps. I go back to the character select screen, then right back in as the same character and I'll be at a smooth 120fps.
