10 points per region.

Has it been confirmed how these passives spawn? Does each region have a random selection of these nodes? Is it different for each person?

They're static for each region. For example, every player's Lex Proxima tree would have the same options. Each Region has its own unique tree.

EDIT: What is 'basic currency'?

EDIT2: And what is a 'Vaal Flesh Merchant'?

Basic Currency is a new term we've introduced that describes currency that drops randomly from normal content. As opposed to currency items that are specific to league content or things like the Awakener's Orb. The Vaal Flesh Merchant is new. I'm sure you'll find out about it soon enough :)

Can you clarify what you mean?

Just to clarify, it's not a 1:1 swap - the number of beasts spawned doesn't depend on the number of mobs removed. It spawns within a fixed range.

Where are all the teasers? Usually we get around 2 teasers a day for 2 weeks leading up to launch. This time around we got a couple lore ones before the expansion reveal, and then nothing... I hope this doesnt become the new norm.

We mentioned in this post that we'd be doing things differently this time around.

It's also likely that we'll front-load the announcement to have more of the expansion's contents revealed at once, reducing the number of small teasers we post in the weeks following announcement.

We may still post a few previews but we're not doing the usual guaranteed "two additional reveals per day" thing. It's an interesting opportunity to experiment with revealing less in the lead up to the launch and how that affects things so feedback is very welcome about it.

This is not against our philosophy about trade and we would like to include this at some point, but from a technical perspective this will take some time.

Wait wait wait wait wait.

You have a specific philosophy about trade that you follow?

That means that the current trading system, in all of it's completely experience ruining glory, is fully supported by your "philosophy", since you haven't actually changed anything.

Can someone explain to me why, oh why, is your trade philosophy having the players go to a third party website and then spam ping everyone interested for a mere chance of getting to spend their hard earned currency. I don't even wanna get started at bulk trades.

That is your philosophy. That is what you think is good for the game. How?

You can read more about it here.

At some point we will need to make a news post that shares our thoughts on 2021’s schedule.

We used to do that but it’s a surprising amount of work to showcase them due to the amount of text and translation alongside the rest of the news for the week (balance manifestos, patch notes etc) and for the amount of payoff in terms of build planning compared to other posts it didn’t feel as worth it.
