Mystic Adepts are more grudgingly seen as "usually the best way to do whatever it is you want to do." The grudging is because people hate for there to be one true choice at something.

I don't like Mys Ads, for two reasons first b/c they can't go Astral, which if ya wanna do anything serious in magic ya need to be able to do. Second, it's an epic freebie point sink, it's very limiting if you want to take full advantage of it. That combined with the recent obsession with burnout concepts just leaves me with a very poor taste in my mouth.  Not only are folks devoting lots of resources into going into Mysads, they then waste them getting a couple lousy points of ware.

I have wondered about all the burnout stuff, seems crazy to go into but I haven't really chromed out any character builds i've messed with yet. I built a MysAd as my first character and did find they were super heavy point-wise, and still sort of sucked for awhile after chargen. after initiation it wasn't too terrible, but still a pain to be sort of support, sort of combat for awhile.
