- This is a Soul Orb at 60 FPS.
- And this is what the Soul Orb looks like at 240 FPS.I first noticed this bug when I realized that whenever my FPS dropped, the orbs would start glowing more brightly.
It confused me a bit, because I thought I was falling behind in net worth—as if the game were "hinting" at me to "last-hit me" by increasing the brightness and glow of the soul orbs—yet in reality, my net worth was higher than anyone else's on my lane. Later, the net worths evened out, but the glowing persisted. Consequently, for the rest of the match, I played under the assumption that I needed to last-hit every single soul.
I subsequently noticed that when no one else was nearby, the souls didn't glow at all; they simply appeared black and would only light up when they were ready to be last-hit.
I recorded several clips, and later, while reviewing them, I noticed something: during the moments when the "soul" was glowing, the frame rate dropped to around ~110fps because there were several characters surrounding me; however, when no one was nearby, fps stayed above ~200fps, and the souls stopped glowing.
Try locking your FPS at 60, entering the Sandbox, and observing the initial glow of the Soul; then, set it to over ~200 FPS and you will see the difference, provided your system is capable of reaching frame rates higher than 200. This visual bug is also noticeable on the Soul Generator in Sandbox.

I would also like to ask: where did the visual effect go that you added in the "Map Rework Update"?Specifically:
" - Gaining souls from kills now shows a visual effect of souls flying towards you. "
This refers to the entry from the "02-25-2025 Update" patch notes:
" [ Soul Orb Mechanics ]
- Troopers no longer need to be last hit by a player in order to generate souls, as long as you are nearby. Troopers no longer have the "near death" flashing behavior.
- Soul Orb lifetime in the air reduced significantly.
- Soul Orb denies changed from 65/35% to 50/50%.
- Soul Orb physical radius increased by 10%.
- Reduced horizontal movement of soul orbs from troopers.
- Gaining souls from kills now shows a visual effect of souls flying towards you. "
This visual effect was just beautiful XD
But it just disappeared
