Hydroid's Tentacle Swarm causing severe FPS drops

[SatchQ]

Hydroid's fourth ability, Tentacle Swarm, causes severe frame drops in certain circumstances (sometimes as much as reducing 144fps down to below 10fps).

All the Hydroids I have played with (that I know of) have been using the Pilfering Swarm augment, but I'm not sure if that's necessarily what causes it.

This is the only time I ever get frame drops, so I'm positive that it's this and not something else causing it.

Performing a Google search for "hydroid lag" returns multiple results for forum threads in which other people complain about the same problems - some even more than a year ago, yet the issue remains.

I get the impression that the person playing Hydroid does not experience the frame drops, but the other players do.

I've also submitted a support ticket about this including my EE.log for any devs to look at.

Thanks.

Glad they fixed it, only took them a little over 7 months to isolate the fix this issue.
