Other than ceremonial armour, what armour in the renaissance was ridiculous?
However practical it may be, most full plate looks pretty silly to me. Of course, I don't see the big deal of embellished fantastical armor in a world of magical crafting, wizards, and dragons. But then again, I suppose the demands for historical realism exists for the most petty of places.

For those that are commenting about the armor my 2 coppers. It is a Forge Cleric.
Armor and weapons for this particular Cleric should stand out as being fantastical and noticeably different in some way.

It's exciting fantasy not boring fantasy so it should look exciting, not boring.

Stupid armour and weapons are boring to me. Real world armour and weapons are much more interesting and exciting. Then again, I'm satisfied with the size of what I have to work with. Others seem to be compensating through fantasy.

That's why I have my D&D characters accomplish simple things like sweeping streets instead of saving kingdoms and stopping apocalypses.

So, almost no mechanical discussion, instead a lot of complaints about art...

Sounds about right.

The rules do seem to be nearly identical to the UA version, which might mean a lot more of these subclasses are going to be almost identical to their UA version.

Still, looking forward to seeing this one.

I feel like you're judging my next character.
Yes, yes that's exactly what I'm doing.

Don't be silly. You know you're being disingenuous. Real world weapons and armour are cool. There's loads of very interesting history behind them. There's no need to embellish and it's frustrating to search through hundreds of pictures of art only to find everything only suitable to someone with an anime fixation. You have loads of that type of art for yourself, why begrudge me a desire to have more art for my preferences?

I've discussed the mechanics more than you have and all you seem to have done is complain about complaints.
