I've noticed a few glitches in certain armors , mainly seams that are not sealed properly. I know it must have been fun making and animating so many models and a few small glitches are understandable, such as the split across the shoulders of the 15k Female Gladiator armor (Hard to notice).

But I recently notices a huge error in the 15k Female Dragon armor. There is a seam on the back of her waist that is not sealed becomes a huge hole that you can see right through while she is fighting. I don't think this would be hard to fix but for now I'm hiding it with my cape.

Has anyone noticed any other simular Glitches?

use excess materials to patch up your armor.

Maybe they're not glitches and it's actually because of lazy armour smiths. But on a serious note it would look alot better if the glitches were fixed however it doesn't cause any real problems whilst playing the game.

Then you should see skin underneath the glitched points, and not the ground/mountain/whatever is on the other side of your body

I don't know if this counts, but the obvious pixel invert stretching going on when monks do /dance or /flex. Especially on their arms.. It needs to be fixed.

Other then that, 15k cultist needs its dye layer tweeked, when dyed black some parts turn out dark black some turn out greyish red.

There's a big gap on the back of my Glad leggings while I'm sitting. I'm just hoping nobody'll give me a wedgie when I'm AFK.

When the male mesmer uses /flute, his leg jerks as he plays.

Also, the "draping" portion of various armor disappear when your character is walking through deep water.

There are many things for male Warrior. Such as, if you notice most of the time, the upper body and lower body look separated at the waist and put together with glue. :L Very noticeable when doing the /dance emote. Also, 15k Platemail, when a male warrior sits down, his right foot doesn't move, so his ankle stretches to his leg. :l Freaky stuff. Also, for male Monk, wearing any armor except for FoW, the cape is all cut off at spots around the neck, its pretty weird, but also a cool design. :L

hold onto one of those flags (go into the new area outside on the island, the first place where you can get tutorials for PVP and stuff) and use emotes. Lol. You'll stab yourself and rack yourself, make it look like the flag pole is a human pole...

Anyway, one major glitch I noticed is that my Mesmer's nose sticks out of the mask of Domination. I'm one of the few people without SCS (Small Character Syndrome) and it kind of annoys me when I have the tip of my nose sticking out of the mask. It makes me look ridiculous as opposed to the scary kind of hocky-domination mask of fear.

Good news, It seems they fixed the small glitch in the 15k Gladiator armor, I was playing the other day and noticed, no more split in the shoulder, now they need to do the dragon armor.

cultist and fanatic armor for female necros, the right shoulder is going into the body, hard to discover, just look at it from certain angles, this only appears when she is standing still

The jacket of a Male Mesmer with FoW goes right through the legs. It looks hidious.

The thing is, ANet made these animation (mostly emotes) on naked character. If you have a naked character, you won't have any trouble with clipping. ANet should check every armor on clipping individualy!

I strarted this thread not meaning clipping glitches, which if you look at some ele armors the skirt has it's own animations, they animated the charracters with their armor on since really there's nothing underneath the armor. The glitches I meant are splits, actual holes in the skin. I do a little modeling myself and know how the animation works. The problem is each piece of armor is a separate skin that lines up exactly with the others, but if the verticies along the seems don't have the same bone ancoring, they will move differently and split open. Like I said they fixed the one in the 15k female Gladiator armor, hopefully they'll soon fix the rest... I like my dragon armor, but it's just bothers me to no end seeing that hole in her waist.
