Have you checked your spell detail level in your video settings? If you have it all the way down, you'll only see 1-4 arrows. If you turn it up, you should see the proper amount.
Even when I had a crappy computer that maxed at 15 fps with all settings turned down, that's one setting I almost always kept turned on. Aside from making your spells look nice, it can really be a lifesaver when you are in an AoE
It still glitches sometimes. I admit I only have mine turned to mid settings, but I've never had a problem with spells before this last patch. Ever since I started playing I have always had my spell graphics set at the same level and never had a single problem until this last patch.
Back before the changed volley animation(the fountain), I was seeing 7-12 arrows(guessing, but it was a lot), then again the fountain was fine spewing about 6 or so times. Then the last patch came and I was only seeing 4 arrows.
I turned it all the way up and still only see 4 arrows. It isn't just volley either, and it isn't just me. I can't even see cone of cold on my mage. Netherspite's black hole things, didn't appear on the ground for anyone causing a wipe(that was a fun vent conversation). Nightbane's fire wasn't appearing for some people either.
It was something about this last patch that changed a lot of things about the visual effects that are ******** some people up.
