The Last Chance fire bug?

So running through The Last Chance part of EP6 I’m getting a rather annoying bug that causes the fire or glowing squares to not show making it impossible to progress.
Things I’ve tried: Restarting. Rebooting pc. Repairing the client. Messing with graphic options. Closing programs to see if they conflict.
I’ve only seen a few with the issue so I’m not sure how widespread it is.

Update: One of our excellent QA folks is going to take a look. They believe it may be an issue with certain graphics cards, but they’ll test and we’ll let you know what we discover.

I’m in the same boat, and I tried the same things. I used /bug to submit a bug report, but here are my video card specs in case it helps.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX970

I’ve also attached a dxdiag report.

Just discovered something. I had area of effect rings disabled. Which turned off the entire visual effect. Re-enable them and you will be able to see the effect again.

So the fire deactivates with the AoE ring? Nice catch! <3
