Here i'll list all the glitches in Guild Wars. If you have a glitch, please post, and if you can, tell us how we can do the glitch, if it was random, please state that it was a 1-time random glitch. If you have directions, please tell us how to do it, what we need to do it, and any extra comments. (check the already made glitches for examples)

Naked Female Elementalist
Glitch:
--- Female Elementalist's Underwear (panties and bra) will disapear.
Requirements:
--- Female Elementalist (short would be best)
--- A river or a pool of water
Directions:
-1- Strip your elementalist of her clothes so that she's only in her sexy light blue panties and sexy bra.
-2- Go to a river or pond, if you are deep enough, your underwear will have disapeared already.
-3- To make the bra disapear, put this command: /sit
Comments:
--- I'm not sure if this only works on the elementalist, so try to do some other classes.
--- Submitted by Hisako Kaji

Air Ball
Glitch:
--- A ball of cold air that appears in front of your face.
Requirements:
--- Any Guild Wars character
--- A snowy/cold place
--- For best results, put visual qualities to max
Directions:
-1- Go to any snowy/cold place, in a refuge would be best.
-2- If you notice closely, everytime you move, your character breathes a breath of cold air. The cold air looks like gas, but with practice, you can harness it to become a ball of cold air.
-3- To do that, tap the A button, or the D button rappidly. Only tap one of them. Try not to hold down the button, just keep tapping. Your character will slowly move in a circle, and when he/she faces your screen, you can see a white/blue ball in front of their face.
Comments:
--- Sometimes, it looks like a light ball because it's so bright
--- Submitted by Hisako Kaji

Golden Footprint
Glitch:
--- A golden footprint
Requirements:
--- Any Guild Wars character
--- Any land type area (a dirt terrain would be best)
--- For best results, put visual qualities to max
Directions:
-1- Go to any land type area, not water. (dirt or sand would be best)
-2- If you notice closely, everytime you move, your character leaves a footprint on the ground, if you practice hard enough, you can make it a golden footprint.
-3- To do that, press the S and W button over and over, one after another. Pretty soon, your footprints will overlap, do this for about 2, 3 minutes and you will see a golden foot print.
Comments:
--- I've only tried it on dirt terrain, so im not sure if it will have the same effects on snow.
--- Submitted by Hisako Kaji

Fading Glitch
Glitch:
--- A pond will fade when its not suppose to.
Requirements:
--- Any Guild Wars character
--- Seeker's Passage (next to Elona Reach)
--- For best results, put visual qualities to max
Directions:
-1- Go to Seeker's Passage (next to Elona Reach) in Guild Wars Prophecies.
-2- If you have ever made an object fade, its when an object stands in your view of your character, such as a large boulder, that item will fade, but that doesn't mean it has disapeared.
-3- Go to the bush and stand in the spot between the bush and the pond.
-4- Move your camera around so that the bush is in the way of viewing your character. The bush will fade away as normal, but the pond behind you will also fade.
Comments:
--- This pond seems to be succesful, not sure if this happens on other ponds.
--- Submitted by Algeron Zolo

Slip-Thru Gate
Glitch:
--- Walk through a gate
Requirements:
--- Any Guild Wars character
--- Piken Square (Prophecies Campaign)
Directions:
-1- Go to Piken Square.
-2- Go up the hill where you can find Farrah Cappo and Undertaker Cortis.
-3- Go behind Undertaker Cortis, and you will see a large gate that leads to a cemetary.
-4- You can go right through the gate, but there will be an invisible barrier stopping you just inside.
Comments:
--- This isn't that much of a glitch, just a layout problem...
--- Submitted by Hisako Kaji

Tomb of the Dragon's Lair
Glitch:
--- Being in the Dragon's Lair and at the same time in the Tomb of the Primeval Kings.
Requirements:
--- Any Guild Wars character
--- The Tomb of the Primeval Kings

-2- At the entrance, turn right into a rock.
-3- You will be able to go into the rock and once in the rock, stay as much as you can to the right while going upward.
-4- Soon, you will run into a glitch where you are in both the Dragon's Lair and the Tomb of Primeval Kings.

Wire frame flesh golem:

I noticed this after the last update.

You must raise a flesh golem using that elite skill. After the golem dies, raise another one off of the corpse of the golem. Pass the mouse cursor over the corpse of the exploited corpse. The corpse will all of a sudden show up in a bright white wire frame.

This will likely be fixed as it did not happen before the last update. But it happened everytime I tried it over the last couple of days. It is not a one-time glitch, rather a recent one.

Take any character and go to the a pond (either one) in Seeker's Passage (near Elona Reach). go to one of the bushes growing near the pond and stand in front of it (between the pond and the bush). then adjust ur camera so that the bush is between u and the camera. The bush will fade, to clear ur view, but the water and bank of the pond will fade out too!

When in a party with pets, better not stand to close together. Pets can block your passage, and will not go away. The more pets there are, the bigger chances are that you all have to leave the party, because you can't continue anymore. Bunny thumpers beware

Well.. just dying seemed to get the wireframe glitch. I got quite well acquainted with it in Cantha. It's never happened to me before though.

The Ascalon Guard is/was stuck under a flight of steps near the Great Northern wall. Near Simon the Scribe IIRC. He may still be there, poor fella. All you need to do is center yourself on his head (you can see his helmet through the steps) and then spin the camera so that the stairs alpha out. And bingo, Tyrian Acrobats inc.

Before the updates, my mesmer, (canthan face) and her mask, 15k kurzick, fit perfectly. she has bangs that go across her forehead and even these managed to brush gracefully across the top of the mask. after the updates, especially the last one, that repaired the messed up hairs and heads, the mask now sits out farther from her face and clips up into her hair, and honestly, looks like shit. Wish I had seen this would happen before I stuffed a superior vigor on it.

I may be mistaken, but I believe the wireframe "glitch" is actually an intended effect associated with skills that use corpses (eg minions, CC, putrid etc.). Added in recent update.

no it has to be a glitch, otherwse it would have been recorded in the updates. It's not the kind of thing you would update and keep it as hidden, so it has to be a glitch.

Why would you intentionally show a wireframe ?

Can't think of any good reason why they'd want a wireframe showing. Interesting if you're a 3d modeller though, to see the polys.

I wonder if it's related to the new way characters seem to appear when you first enter a town. Before, my toons would load with invisible legs and arms and then popped into view fully textured. Now... the whole model seems to load with no texture (black) then the armour drops in with no texture but environment mapping and specular effects showing.. So my ele is a shiny white thing for a split second.

Looks quite odd.

I dont think the gold ground is actually a "glitch", and Im pretty sure its supposed to be like fire (atleast thats how it looks) from walking back and forth so much/fast. I think that the whole engraving in the ground was just a little joke that was put in the game or an easteregg. Great find though I enjoyed that one

Forgot about the "attacking with no weapon" glitch.

1. Take off one piece of armor on a warrior.
2. /dance
3. Return the piece back to its slot and at the same time press W or S.

You (could) avoid the effects of the first room of the Deep. You just walk through the gate (you can for some reason) and continue up until your out of the area that is being affected. Not sure if this still works, I last did it about a month ago.

Sometimes when I'm on my warrior and she's in her Glad's armor, the armor loads first, then the hair/body. I keep trying to get a good screen of it, but I can never seem to rotate the camera/get away from other chars in time before the rest load

in bukdek byway after fighting wing three blade's crew keep on your current path passed them. (before you walk thru the narrow path to where the bridge is to your left) turn left where the piece of tin is that kinda fades in and out when you view it. in that corner you can go thru the map to the bottom and walk around. you can even kinda go up a little and over hiding behind the ledge. but you can still take damage though which sucks cause i was trying to solo wing and thought i could avoid taking damage this way

oh and i havent found a way to get out of this hole without mapping back to town.

also i fell thru the stairs once right outside of the marketplace going south where the res shrine is, passed it, turn right, straight then left to the staircase.

Mine's been doing that but only since the Nightfall weekend update - wondering if that's got anything to do with it? Every time any of my chars zones they end up with black boots/gloves and a body that looks like it came from a Terminator film
Fortunately only for a couple of secs though

I sometimes get a "bug"
sometimes when I kill a mob, I'll see a grey cone thing that spins, the tip pointing in the direction the mob was when it was killed
just thought that was kind of cool, since that's how I think AN has their NPCs target and such

the airball thing in front of your face is no glitch.... its you seeing your own breath...unless you mean it looks different. In that case it is indeed a computer graphics card error on your part.

In the warriors guild hall you can run up a near vertical slope and have half your body above and below the bridge.

The Flesh Golem glitch:

Also got stuck in the stairs leading up to Vanyi in Drok's once, with only my toon's head sticking out and other players stomping on it. Had to map out.
Happened to me in ToPK once too, in the final area. Damn stairs.
