If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Try lowering the settings a notch and follow the link while you're at it so we can see what exactly is pushing your card to the point that it's eyeballs are bleeding.
Actually that giant boulder is covering you! Of course you can't see.
I also found it annoying fighting those Knives of Vengeance with the Earth powers. One of those powers drops a few large boulders on and around you, so all you see are the boulders. What worked for me was zooming out a good ways and also leaving the vicinity of those Earth powers that are obscuring the combat area. Don't worry, those Knives of Vengeance will follow you (and continue to try to bury you under boulders).

What I mean is what setting would affect something like that? I didn't think my personal settings mattered.

Sadly I can't pull my camera back, nor can I effectively run because I am in a Circle of Thorns Oranbega map. My camera is forced most of the time right up to my character by low ceilings, and if I can see I can't spin and navigate passages with torches that catch me.|

Are those particle effects? Can I turn down particle settings to stop them?

We (and by "we" I mean those that actually know what the settings do, not necessarily me) can't really judge that until we get a look at what you have it set to now. I could be a setting, but it could easily be something else.

Possibly, but I think the option that is most likely to help you is turning the physics settings down. I think it's "particle physics" and set it to "off"(if possible) so that the boulders they generate disappear once they hit you.|

It's definitely a setting near the top of the graphics options.
Other than that, I'm at a loss.

Moonlighter, if you could collect the information described in this HOWTO thread.
Then paste it back in your thread here.
Also, if you have any screenshots of the strange behavior, those can sometimes help too.
Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.
I am having a problem with a graphic effect that seems to be bugged out. I am in the third mission in DA of Praetor Duncan's arc trying to fight Circle of Vengeance in an Orebaga map, or however you spell that.
When they use earth powers on me the game bugs out and all I can see is a stone blob over the entire screen. It blots out the entire 3D screen and it looks like it screws up my camera. I have lost all visual for as long as 10 seconds.
Is there some setting I have wrong? Has anyone else seen this bug?
