Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Albion renders top-down, so a lower internal resolution is hard to notice — but the game is so light that most PCs won’t need it outside 100-player ZvZ fights.
Particle / Spell EffectsLow+10% FPS
The setting that actually matters: in big ZvZ fights hundreds of spell effects overlap. Every serious PvP player drops this to Low for stable frames when it counts.
Shadow QualityOff+8% FPS
Character and building shadows. The next biggest saving after effects.
Ambient OcclusionOff+4% FPS
Soft contact shading. Minor cost, minor visual — fine either way.
Ground Clutter / VegetationLow+4% FPS
Grass and clutter density in the open world.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface sharpness. Nearly free — Albion runs on 2GB cards.
