Mac Lag Spikes when using Terra Blade

[RedMenace]

Hello Terrarians, I have this weird issue where my game goes down to like 3 fps while I’m doing pierce damage with the Terra Blade (same goes for True Excalibur) to three or more enemies (also when fighting the Destroyer or Wyverns and targeting several body parts) at a time. I know it is not the hardware so it must be software related ig? I don’t really know what could be causing it. When using a bow and Jester Arrows it doesn’t lag. I already tried removing damage numbers and lowering the quality in hopes of fixing it, but it still persists. Has anyone got any idea? Thanks in advance.

Do you mean the projectile or melee part? Does this occur when hitting multiple Target Dummies instead of real enemies too?

Both, as soon as I hit several enemies or parts of one at once it starts lagging, but only with the sword. It also occurs when hitting Target Dummies. I also get lag with the laser shooting Crystal from the Chlorophyte Armor.

Are you playing on macOS or Linux by chance?

Yes I am playing on MacOS. I recently got a Silicon one with an M4 Chip, but before then I used a much older one and never had these problems. SO it must be something software related ig?

Have you figured it out yet?
