um, as far as the problem w/ red necro armor shading, lighting effects or not it's better off that way. I edited it to have all of the colors match and that looks fugly. Really you look awesome the way it is.

One of the most annoying glitches....Ranger Female Studded Leather 15k issue with dancing (parts of legs are missing from the hip area & thighs are like floating into some abyss while dancing ). I don't have picture but many of you propably know what I'm talking. I ended up deleting whole armour ...wasn't really happy...

lool, it's true. Once you notice the first visual glitch, your eyes are glued open for the next one.

I don't have an SS (shame on me) but I know that when male warriors with long hair run forward without their helms, their necks come out through their hair.

i don't think these problems can easily be fixed, i think it will cause way to much time, because the whole characters models would be changed and that may cause that some other armor that looked great wil look ugly or will get errors. I think A-net should look better when they put new armor in the game, because it sometimes really looks bad.

You should all just be happy with how good the graphics are for the most part, there may be a few glitches, but compared to some games......

as you can see, i'm missing a piece of my arm ( 1 ) ...I'd like this to be fixed too ( indeed, it sounds weird: ''i'm missing a piece of my arm, lol '' )

2nd -> as you can see, the wrappings or ''floating '' around...these should be tight around my arm ! ( of wich a piece is missing >< )

Anyway, all these bugs are present even in 1.5k armor, anet is too busy adding in updates like..... well w/e they feel like updating, which is mostly stuff that are outta the wall, although this seems to petty to get much attention, still GL.

they should fix all of this, instead of making stupid weekend event , ffs .

Actually it is a part of your pumped warrior biceps. Check out some Body builders arms and see how their biceps looks similar.

15k Canthan is supposed to look like that, with a lil skin showing above the elbows and below the knees. It looks sort of cute I think. I see no reason to extend the material or change that armor in any way at all.

They probably should do some better work on the art.

I'm starting to think they need a third developement team just to fix all the bug, glitches and weakness in the game regularly, expecially when the 2 developement teams are switching off yearly rotation of new chapters.

Update: I resort to keeping my warrior's helm on ALL the time. He's a prophecies char and has the long hairstyle, but when I take the helm off and run around, every time he lands a step a patch of skin at the back of his head clips through his hair, and I can't stand lookin at this wee spot every time I move.

lets face it GW has average graphics at best, sure they should fix the minor glitches but lets say nightfall has similar graphics to oblivion for example, how many ppl could actually run the game then? ive seen some ppl post their comp stats and some are using really poor machines.

Ok so that wasnt completely on topic but i think you will get the picture

female ritualist luxon 15k headgear has no dangling effect, but luxon 1.5k headgear has them. =( i feel so ripped off after getting it..

/rant
anet prolly wont' do anythign about them... wat anet is interested in was nerfing stuff... like how they nerfed fisherman's haven tengu rune farming in the early days which wasn't even relevant or affecting gameplay (coz there weren't rune traders in the early days)... nerfing protbond till its unusable and totally useless skill along the ranks of otugh's cry thingy lol

Notice the Cape and the Art of the Armor -.-


Though not an armor glitch, this one is even more annoying. The hair keeps on clipping through the head again and again. If it were only for emotes i couldn't care less, but it actually happens with almost everything. Running? Yep. Clipping. Casting? Yep. Clipping.

i'd like to see everyone of the complainers make a seemless low polygonal model, texture it, and then add the complex animations to the avatar and see what results they come up with.

i see so many people on here ask for things to be fixed that if they had a clue as to what it takes to actually make games we wouldn't be subject to these types of threads.

well actually it doesnt matter if we can or can't make it ourselves. while its hard yes, we probably all know that... the problem is, they released them like this, not all armors have these issues, so thats the problem.

if all armors has problems like this it wouldn't be a great looking game but a sloppy game. having plain HOLES in armors is just not acceptable... they stretch the armors for the animations, and they skipped quite a few of the obvious emotes that needed better animation tied to the armor.

according to your comment no one should ever even complain about anything they can't make or change themselves, correct? get the hell out of here.

here are my gripes w/ canthan 15k female assassin armor (chest piece only)

man, even w/ the bugs its still my favorite armor I just die a little inside whenever she attacks or /flexes

I understand ANet has a ton of stuff they need to fix (balancing and other problems that come w/ running a MMO) but does that mean that things like this will never be fixed? Honestly, I'd love to hear someone at ANet pitch in on this (a definitive yes or no would be nice, hell i'll even take some dancing around the topic). I'm a bit POed that ANet will be ignoring all of these small problems because they are always going to be busy w/ the next chapter.

bah! I may have to hold out until some good Nightfall assassin armor shows up (hopefully those wont be bugged, but if they are maybe some chapter 4 assassin armor will look good...)

dont assume assassins and rits are in nightfall, no one knows if they will support past chapters in ANY possible way yet.

Not sure if this counts as art but Luxon 15k Necro Female armor is also missing a shadow on all locations except parts of the leggings (and the head of course). Should not be a glitch on my client either as all my other armors show the shadow perfectly.


Looks very creepy especially when moving around :P

My necro suffers from the same problem, it looks terrible.

Also theres a walking NPC in Lions Arch that only has a head shadow.

In order for each armor to work perfectly they would have to make new animations for each character when they wear a different armor since each armor has different sizes and dimensions.

All these people want everything to be perfect, but thats not going to happen unless you want to pay more money, or get less content in each chapter.

these are low polygon count characters, and for them to have good animation their polygons stretch and distort, and because of that the details on them do the same.

Clipping such as the wars hand going through his shoulder pad are because the new armors aren't the dimensions originally designed for that character.

Id rather the game be playable then complain that my wars armor looks weird when I do a certain emote.

And to be honest, I have never played an mmo where the armors didn't have problems

crow120: The armor you show is unlikely to ever be fixed. The GW engine doesn't sort transparent polygons, so often attempts to draw transparent polygons over each other will result in one being masked out by the other.

15k Luxon Female: Fix the glowing wasteline. Fix the dislocated right shoulder.
15k Vabbian Female: Fix the glowing wasteline.

How is it that some armor can stand water, and others can't? I know capes have this problem, but as far as I've understood, most normal armor have no problem with being in water.



Oh, and the Ancient ritualist armor has some other problems too, it's impossible to use it together with other armor pieces as it cuts off a part of the waist and legs. As in, the ritualist just has a huge gap where her waist should be, and her legs don't connect to anything.

On the 15k Luxon Necro armor the back of the head appears through the collar when you're strafing left and right.
