Concerns about Tech Adept

3

Did you guys just use assets from the base game for the Tech adepts model and gear? I like the way he plays, but visually speaking he honestly feels like a modded character. I don't mean to come off as insulting, as I REALLY like what you've done with the eldar and nids, but the adept is more than a little disappointing. The monetary cost of this class is nothing to laugh at, so it would be great if some more attention was paid to his appearance/gear.

I think the model is fine, but the appearance of the gear is disappointing. All I see is pope hats and cardinal hats. It's all rather bland. I get that they are a religious cult, but I don't recall any adepts or priests actually wearing such religious looking outfits or gear, that style of out fit is more fitting towards the ecclesiarchy. As a former member of the mechanicus I thought we'd be in for some of the Iconic red martian robes sporting different hoods with different augmentations and mechanical parts. Other than that I thoroughly enjoyed the story....might have been a touch too easy though.

I'm not saying you didn't put work into him. I'm saying that you didn't create any new assets, only modified existing ones. There are a TON of mechanicus concept arts out there. His headgear (aside from the hood) isn't in any of them. I think you used models you already had instead of creating new ones based on mechanum lore. I gotta play the diablo 3 card. If blizzard put out Reaper of Souls and the Crusaders model and gear were entirely made of stuff from the base game, they would have been rightfully torn to shreds by both the media and the community. 


You're charging a comparative price for this content and I think it's fair to expect a character that reflects the lore he's based on. He currently does not.

We polished the Tech Adept's model a lot during the development and we found the final form satisfying. On the other hand we naturally pay close attention to our players' feedback on everything so further changes may occur.
