Could you give us a bit more information on the "changing over time base map drop rate"? Does this mean you try to rebalance the base drops each league based on how many maps you expect players to get from the league content?
We do, and sometimes we get it wrong.
I'm not in New Zealand currently to talk directly to the team in person, but there is a discussion about this going on and I wouldn't be surprised to see a tweak to map drops in the immediate future.
One ongoing issue that we will need to solve is that each league has varying mechanics that drop maps, and combined with the (often changing over time) base map drop rate, can occasionally cause leagues where they're slightly too common or slightly too rare. Both outcomes are bad for player experience because map drops are quite a sensitive equilibrium. While our pre-launch simulations can take into account the base map drop rate, we certainly need to put some work into more accurately factoring in the league-specific sources of maps so that there isn't a noticeable difference in the difficulty of sustaining maps from one league to the next.

- Fixed a bug where Synthesis doors did not block movement or projectiles.

As others have noted (correctly), this was just that monsters could walk through the doors (while they were closed) and that skills could go through closed doors as well.
"Updated the description of the "Ignites you inflict deal Damage x% faster" modifier to clarify that it only applies to Ignites applied by Attacks. "
Well there goes my plan to craft a sexy sceptre
I've updated the patch note to clarify that we only changed this description for Dyadian Dawn. Everything else that uses this description is unchanged. Sorry for the lack of specificity there!
Nice to see no mention of Intervention screen freezes. Really improves my playing experience.
As we mentioned in the news earlier this week, we are working on this. It'll be deployed as soon as it's ready. Very sorry for the time it is taking.
I wonder if the ban was connected with botting somehow
It is. We banned a big pile of bots and it appears that their IPs were used by VPN services.

Is there any patch fix regarding not being able to do any league mechanics?
