A Reddit user stated: “Went to a forest outside of the plateau with two Moblins where I had major FPS drops, Now have a consistent 30 there. It seems that there are still specific areas that tank your frames (the first cliff at the plateau, Kakariko, ect.) but I’ve never had that stable FPS during combat while randomly out in the world.”
