Tera Keeps on Freezing Amidst Combat

in New & Returning Player Help
i play a lot of the gunner class, and a lot of their skills are aoe abilities, whenever i actually use any of these abilities on big groups of mobs the game just freezes and i have to restart my computer because it locks up the whole computer. It wasn't doing this before, only recently started happening and now i can't even play at all. I've been browsing through other people's posts who seem to be having the same issue and they've not been resolved at least from what i've read so i have no idea how to begin solving this.

    UPDATE: Okay so as of now i believe i fixed the problem ONLY for myself it seems. If anyone else is experiencing this problem and are using NVIDIA Graphics cards stay tuned because i might have a potential fix. I read here (http://tera-online-guides.blogspot.com/2013/05/full-break-down-of-s1engineini.html) that if you experience crashing and are using NVIDIA cards there's a simple fix. Go to the HappyCloud Folder> Cache>TERA>Client>S1Game>Config>S1Engine. From here you'll get a notepad that pops up with a bunch of code and prompts, look for the line of code that states "bInitializeShadersOnDemand=True" From here all you have to do is change it from "bInitializeShadersOnDemand=True" to "bInitializeShadersOnDemand=False" and restart your client. I have no idea why it works but it seems to work for me but i'll keep people posted

    EDIT: Doesn't work, it seems that if too much is going on at one time during a fight the whole thing will lock up.
