It’d be a lot more useful if we could rank order favorites to least favorites.
Everything looks really nice, especially the Relics, great work team!
Some feedback:
Relics: Simply incredible overall! The Sentinel Relics and the “Damned Souls” Relic looks a little lower in quality, in terms of polish, almost like they’re slightly lower resolution or something, the colours don’t seem as vibrant and details aren’t as clear as some of the others.
Sceptres: I feel like the Sceptres could be a little more creative in their design, a bit more interesting looking. For instance, if you reduced all of the Sceptres to a silhouette, it would be hard to tell much of a difference, as the general shape (for most) is quite similar. But hey, maybe that’s intentional. Perhaps customisable animated weapon effects could be a nice future addition 
(pleeeease?!)
Shields: Loving these designs, especially the more creative one’s, like the Meruna Shell, Root Sheild etc. I’d like to see even more creativity here, think outside the box. I mean, technically, I could use a giant fish, crab’s shell, scorpion’s tail/stinger, spider’s head or maybe even an umbrella to block 
Ultimately I’d love to see most gear transmogrifiable so I can get my character looking exactly the way I want it - i.e. so bad ass that everyone in multiplayer has to stop and stare, ya know? 
Hate to say it, but PoE has a decent system for this (minus the price tag). Ideally, if I’ve picked up an item with an awesome appearance, I’d love to be able to make my current gear look like that. But I digress, great job on the artwork!
I really like the look of all of these. Great work!
I do not like the Homonculus Bile artifact at all. Looks like a small child trapped in a cage. The effigies I am not even sure what they are. They could use a new look all the way. Really the only one I liked was the chalice. The rest I am not even sure I would want to put on a character of mine.
The only good scepter is the Argent Scepter. I like all the shields with the exception of the Meruna Shield, Root shield, Wooden shield, targe, and Ironglass Shield.
The items you have come up with are all plain Jane. Other games have done this and it’s old to people that have played video games for a long time. Give us something we haven’t seen. Give us something that’s refreshing and new. Give us things like shields made of lava, an armor look that has not been seen before and some skills that are worth playing to get.
Gore and uncanny relics of Accolyte are clear winner for me, but overall all classes (except Sentinel) got something shiny that makes you say- “woah that’s neat!”.
In terms of shields, I think it’s a good mix between fantasy ones like Meruna Shell and more medival, practical ones like Wooden Shield. Overall art on them is great.
As of sceptres I think there is way to many high-fantasy stuff and not so much sinister looking ones like Oak Sceptre or Skeletal Sceptre.
Anywho, keep up great work and try to pour more personality into Sentinel gear!
These are all really well done pieces. Can’t wait to see what you guys come up with next!
For animated weapon effect would be nice to have a tool so the communauty could make them and submit them on the website
If anyone doesn’t think the He##i Relic is the best, they’re not paying attention…
would be great if the artwork transferred to your character

The shield & sceptre art does, the relics don’t show though.
Copper Chalice and Rogue’s implements are my favourite. Though the rest is fantastic too!
New art is for sure great but personally I would rather have any form of transmog system in the game asap. Especially that relics do not even show on your character at all.
I have never played a Mage in an aRPG that looked soooo NOT like a Mage.
Metal big ass helmet, plate body armor and hacking away with a 1 handed axe.
Just nope.
Especially that there are great robes/wizard hats and mage specific swords for example already in the game.
Imo instead releasing more elaborate 2d art each patch, majority of players would be happy if we could transmog to already existing 3d armor models - within class restrictions.

I am absolutely in love with the Rogue’s coins and dice. I have a thing for metals and gemstones, I find them fascinating and fun to study and display, so those ruby dice and different metallic coins are so very awesome to me!
In my own opinion I believe the mage gear is quite balanced for the class considering one of their mastery classes is Spellblade. You wear half heavy armor and half light armor. Spellblade being a close and personal melee magical knight it makes sense that some of the gear would be more protective but it’s never leaning so far to what a Sentinel wears. I thought the mix of cloth and metal was a great equilibrium for the class as a whole.

all of this art looks great, but my personal favorite items are the Ruby Dice and Auric Sceptre and Ironglass Shield
We have different defintions of what Battle Mage archetype is then.
That (and maaany other reasons) is why transmog system is a must.
So you could wear an assortment of absolutely random items that do not match together.
And i could stand there looking all stylish in my pointy wizard hat.
Everybody happy yay!

EHG, me love you long time! 
Damned Souls for the win.
Scepters only 2 good [argent and Skeletal] rest are a bit boring. Relics all good except seed.
My thoughts exactly. I scrolled through the relics and was amazed by all of them. Particularly love the Ancient Coins. Then got to the bottom and audibly let out “I have to pick a favorite?!”
The scepters and shields are awesome as well. I think there’s only so much detail you can stick into those, where the relics can better show off texture, fabrics, and abstract design.
I do have to say, I’ll have to see what this Tower Shield ends up looking like in game. When I think Tower Shield I envision something that’s like 5-6 feet tall, at least. It needs to protect the legs, torso, and head, without making the person squat to hide behind it.
I LOVE the new shield models definitely would check them all out. The first thing I did when the patch came out was nerd out on my level 90 toon with gambler. Bought all the new shields just to observe the upgraded models which all look fantastic. I love the different styles, size ranges and details to them. I also noticed the nice touch of your character actually holding the shields handle on the inside, so well done.
