PC (Steam) - Massive FPS Drops When Moving Mouse

I've tried just about everything to fix this using information regarding this problem that I found online. Ran game as an administrator, adjusted polling rate in mouse software down to 125 hz, tried a different mouse (Razer Deathadder, then Logitech Superlight 2), followed the instructions in this video, tried reinstalling, verifying files, all drivers and windows are updated to the latest versions. I played 2v8 a couple weeks ago and didn't have this problem, just tried playing Dracula and it started happening. I did the full Kill the Bots tutorial with a controller and the game ran perfectly fine the entire time so it is only when I move the mouse. The controller is not plugged in when this issue occurs either. Does anyone have any ideas? I submitted this as a bug report but apparently it's not a bug according to the mods, this is the intended way the game should behave.

    Congrats !

    Shadow Play is very depreciated while you are playing to DbD.
