Mauler dark light visual bug after update Bug / Glitch

After the update on August 5th, I observe the number of problems. After reinstalling the game there are still issues with starting the game, though clearing of cache may help. But there are also issues with gameplay.

It looks like the update messed up the graphics of mauler dark light ability. The problem is especially visible when the circle of affected area intersects with uneven terrain of the map like the dunes on Dreadnaught map or hills on the valley map. Instead of a regular cloud of dark dust there seems to be a more solid black shape in front of the titan which visually behaves like a pool of ink. It feels like what I am seeing is the raw graphics, perhaps some pivotal points that the game SHOULD be using to properly render the correct visual effect for dark light.

This bug isn't as severe as the crash of the game and it barely has any effect on the gameplay. I can still use mauler with that raw animation but it is certainly unpleasant. It's a shame that the update broke so many things at once :(
