if you turn particals to minimal, it makes it seemingly invisibe.
If anyone is as annoyed as I am, it will fix it at a sacrifice of no other paricals.
Also, mine appears to reach in a horizontal fashion, and runs across hills about one block above the ground.

darn its annoying.

It moves very similar to an attacking enderman, I might add.

Mine can be seen for many blocks away, hills and even mountains away. I'm using vanilla, and my own texture.
