Missing Textures/Animation

Having this issue as well. What is odd is that the blade does fully render in the Exhalted Plains. However, in all other areas I am getting the same issue you guys are describing (just the glow).

I should note that I'm having most of the issues noted here as well:

I should also note that my game was running PERFECTLY prior to Patch 2 and its subsequent hotfix.

UGH.
