Description of Bug (as much detail as possible): When casting pit of shades you randomly get the spell effect radius stuck centered on your character, which does not go away til zoning or death.

Supposedly its when you proc backlash while cast it, cant confirm, just what all the sorcs in my guild tell me.

It's not random.

You will get it 100% of the time (highly repeatable => no excuse not to fix it) when you are interrupted while channeling.

Repeatable example: Bastion Stairs against Centigors. Standing in knock back range while channeling the spell will ALWAYS trigger the bug.


Other bug trigger:

1) Build up 100 DM or <= 100% DM that will go to 100 at casting the spell.

2) Have a backlash

3) The bug will proc very often in this case. In case you don't get the bug you will get a "silent" pit of shades, damaging stuff in the intended place but with no graphic shown at all. This silent pit of shades will also trigger after you got the bug visible on yourself already.

I never noted a backlash, I was attributing it to a Crit.

Other players can see this graphical bug on the Sorcerer too, for what it's worth.

It's not just Pit of Shadows that is bugged. All of my AoE animations get stuck on me. Pit of Shadows is the most annoying animation though.
