I am more out of my mind than ever now. I have tested checked and verified all of my computer's hardware. I have tried 2 different monitors. Tweaked every setting on my video card and in the game itself. I have totally removed all versions of Dungeon Siege from my computer and reinstalled everything. Why, because if I am the only one seeing the screwed up aura for the Drown Spell and The DS1 Rector, then it must be a hardware or software error on my computer. The problem is as you can guess still there. So for the time being I guess I will just not use the Drown Spell and ignore the purple sky when a rector is someplace near. Hope someone else sees this problem at some point, because I really can not afford to purchase a new computer or even a video card for my old computer especially if after doing that I find out that was not the problem.

The Elf screams and runs off into the darkness, thinking to herself it can not be a hardware problem if only one spell and one monster exhibit the strangeness, however stranger things have happened. thinking again to herself okay elf what is stranger than this? A wolf that thinks he is a house pet?
That you have been playing Dungeon Siege almost half your life? ..........


It's a mystery for sure. Those two effects aren't even very similar, they act in different ways and are set up differently. I looked at the effects templates and couldn't find anything specific to just those two effects.

I'll try some more testing and see if I get the same result. I can always send you a mini-mod to disable the effects on the Rector and the spell. I wouldn't get any new hardware just for those, especially if playing at certain resolutions you don't get the bug.
