Visual Effects and glow of items on the floor disappear

hey folks,
i have the problem that after a short (or longer) time i play the game some visual effects disappear. The items on the floor stop glowing (the green, yellow and blue light beam), i can't see 'smoke bomb' when i cast it on my TR, i can'T see which enemy is cursed by my SW (curse symbol doesnt show!), the splash effect of the 'heart of the black dragon'-power does not show.
this problem appeared month ago, but it was very rare... since a week or so it happens all the time!! i have to restart the game completly to solve the issue, but after a short time it happens again :S
is there a grapic settings i can change to avoid this or what's the problem?
directx 12 installed, graphic driver are up to date.
if you need more information, please ask. i can screenshot my settings if it helps.

    I do believe the glow of items disappearing is a game bug. Not sure if this would help but just a random thought, try increasing the lighting detail slider, I forget what the wording of it is called, Lights per object or something. I keep mine at the max, 5.

    I'm also getting this problem.
    Far as I can tell, none of the options in the graphics menus manages to bring these effects back.

    I am getting the issue as well, have been for several months, all drivers/software up to date. Happens on multiple computers, from desktop to laptop, can be anywhere from several hours into playing, to just a few minutes after logging in. Only way to bring the effects back is to exit completely, adn restart, sometimes having to verify files. Submitted several tickets, no resolution beyond it is a now known bug and is being looked into.
