Details About Revamped Talents Trees - Style of Nodes, Completing Talent Trees

Blizzard released a blue post in the Community Council forums talking about the design philosophy of talent trees, including details about how many levels will there be per node, what percentage of the tree can players expect to fill at max level, and more.Key points

Trees will mostly consist of be 1 point per node, with a few having 2-3 ranks Nodes can be abilities or passives.

More complex than a plain stat bonus, but simpler than the sort of thing that would currently be a level 50 passive talent or a Legendary.
