Son of the wind and escapist animations are bugged under, and have been for quite some time. Here is screen shot how it looks like. This is from PC with AMD A10-7800 APU, and it looks the same as with Intel GPUs and not dependent whether or not shaders are used.
It looks like all Son of the Wind "rings" that are supposed to form this twister-like animation are all smashed in the ground. In some terrains, the animation can't be seen and one keeps wondering why the archer resists all the spells.
Escapist has only the bottom part visible, also very hard to see.
