Best Throne and Liberty Settings for FPS and Performance
Published
On this page
Throne and Liberty is a gorgeous open-world MMORPG, and its massive guild sieges will crater your frame rate if your settings aren’t dialed in. These settings keep FPS playable in crowds while preserving the visibility you need to react in large-scale PvP.
MMO performance lives and dies in crowded zones. Tune for the worst case — a 100-player siege — not an empty field.

Tune for crowded sieges
The settings that crush FPS in big fights are shadows, effects, and character detail:
- Drop Shadow Quality to Low — the single biggest gain in crowds.
- Lower Effects Quality so dozens of skills don’t tank your frames.
- Reduce Character Detail to Medium so 100 players render smoothly.
- Use Quality upscaling to claw back headroom.
Keep the fight readable
- Motion Blur: Off and Depth of Field: Off for a clean, responsive image.
- Ambient Occlusion: Off to brighten cluttered scenes.
- Keep textures high so the world still looks sharp.
Windows & system checks
- Throne and Liberty likes RAM — 16 GB minimum, 32 GB ideal. See how much RAM you need.

The best Throne and Liberty settings floor shadows and effects, keep textures high, and lean on upscaling so guild sieges stay playable. Add fast RAM and an SSD, and the open world stays smooth.
If a setting label changes after an update, apply the same logic: cut shadows, effects, and foliage first, keep the image sharp, and tune for the most crowded fight you’ll join.
Frequently asked questions
What are the best Throne and Liberty settings for high FPS?
Drop Shadow Quality to Low, set Effects Quality to Low and Character Detail to Medium, and turn Ambient Occlusion, Motion Blur, and Depth of Field Off. Keep Texture Quality High if your VRAM allows and use DLSS or FSR at Quality if you are GPU-limited. Throne and Liberty is most demanding in large guild sieges, so tune for those rather than empty-field performance.
How do I boost FPS in Throne and Liberty?
Shadow Quality Low is the single biggest FPS gain in crowded sieges. After that, lower Effects Quality and Character Detail to reduce the cost of dozens of players and skills rendering at once. Use Quality upscaling to recover additional headroom, and make sure your RAM is running at rated speed with XMP or EXPO enabled, since Throne and Liberty is memory-intensive.
Why does Throne and Liberty drop FPS in guild sieges?
Large sieges stack effects from many players casting abilities simultaneously, which compounds shadow, particle, and character-detail costs far beyond what you see in open-world exploration. Lowering Shadow Quality, Effects Quality, and Character Detail protects your frame rate in those worst-case scenarios. RAM speed and capacity also matter more here than in typical shooters.
What are the best Throne and Liberty settings for a low-end PC?
Set Shadow Quality, Effects Quality, Foliage, and Reflections all to Low, drop Character Detail to Low, and enable FSR at Quality or Balanced. Turn Ambient Occlusion, Motion Blur, and Depth of Field Off. Upgrade to at least 16 GB of RAM and enable XMP or EXPO if you have not already, since Throne and Liberty uses more system memory than most games.
Does Throne and Liberty support DLSS or FSR?
Yes, Throne and Liberty supports both DLSS and FSR upscaling. Use Quality mode for the best balance of added frames and retained image clarity. This is especially useful in siege content where the GPU is already handling many characters and effects at once. Avoid aggressive Performance modes in PvP, since they can soften enemies at range.
