Very lonely guide section
I'll keep it short. This simple fix has brought me from 45fps in big fights and 20fps on certain maps all the way to 60 fps in all circumstances.

Once the game is running, go to task manager, switch to "details" tab, right click on "Last Epoch.exe", select "Set Affinity" and uncheck "cpu 0".

Detailed instructions:
1) go to your Task Manager in windows
2) switch to "details" tab
3) right click on "Last Epoch.exe"
4) select "Set Affinity" and uncheck "cpu 0"
5) click "ok"
6)???
7) profit

You can automate this process with tool called "Process Lasso", by running the game and then in Process Lasso, right clocking Last Epoch.exe, sellecting "CPU affinity" and then unselecting CPU 0. You can even deselect CPU 1, might help further, but I have not tested that.

As long as Process Lasso is running, every time you launch Last epoch now, those selected threads will not be used for Last Epoch

Its a problem cause by windows, not the game itself, a lot of games theses days have this same problem.

Other fix is using Process Lasso and set it to use only 90~95% of the CPU on the Last Epoch exe.

Just what I was looking for! Fixed stutter in Stash and those random stutters you get after a while during big fights.

There must be some command you can put in the launch option to have this work automatically.

I'm running a 13900K / 4090 Founders - I was having huge FPS drops in Monoliths and disabled core 0 and it seems to have fixed most of the problem. Good find!
