check your light source and see whetehr the shadow type are ray traced shadows, if not turn your shadow type to raytraced shadows, and put the bias at something like 0.1 or 0.01
.

can you try changing your antialiasing filter to "catmull-rom"?

Hi dnagi,

You need to increase the Rays Per Sample in the IES Sky render settings. This will increase render time, so increase in small amounts until the noise goes away. 10 rays per sample might be enough. If this is for an animation, sky shadows may not be feasible.
