I can't see shit

If I get partied with a skeleton/zombie spammer I spam corpse explode whenever convenient. Corpse explode is pretty good anyway

What is really needed (and probably the simplest to implement) is the ability to turn off effects generated by other characters.

Great idea. The effects are just too much. Combine this with the immense loot drops (even with hitting alt for on/off) and a small endmage map (chambers etc.) and its just too much. Also one more thing. my gaming pc cant handle all these effects. im going down from 97 frames ti 3 frames in a party, even with only 3 more players. its really annoying and confusing why i am losing so many frames. GG should change the efects like suggested above.

If the casters are bothering you with their aoe particle effects, just bother them with something else. My friends constantly spam firestorm and lightning, so I saturate the area with poison arrows and obscure everything (and they had the nerve to complain about me haha).

I just made a open group for killing Piety, and a Necromancer of some sort joined. No lag while people were getting to the boss but when we engaged, that necro and her 2093752 summoned friends started a lag fest! 3 seconds later, the boss was dead.
Im just happy I survived... and quest complete!

The one thing I really dislike is Poison Arrow. Those clutter the whole screen, creating massive lag and darkening everything(!). If this is combined with a Lightning Arrow or Wander build you get eyecancer, really. From shadowy poisoncloud dark to epilepsia creating whiteblue flashes within milliseconds is torture. Atm I leave parties once a poisonarrow build joins, it is just unbearable. And I know that I am no better as I play a Lightning Strike ranger. It´s a mess; although I like the looks of nearly every skill (though PA actually makes me feel sick) it is a mess when I join a party.

You must be some kind of supercomputer if you can count to 2093752 in 3 seconds.

The only issue i really have is when u got a summoner witch in the group that constantly has 4 zombies and 5 skeletons running around with u, i often find myself unable to even locate the mob to attack it lol!

I love my poison arrow (with lmp) particle effects. I like to drown my enemies in poison gas cloud, really big one xD Most of the time I just do it for fun to see the pretty particles.

If the Devs want to change one thing about this game, that does not effect the balance of the game, I would hope that it is adding a Particle Effects slider to the option menu.

As many others here have mentioned, it is overkill right now. And on all the lesser computers, it prevents you from partying without having a 30 frames per MINUTE framerate.
God help me if I got into a party of 5 on my laptop and there were a couple casters.
