It's a management decision not one of the developers; with such a small team, you can only either produce new fancy modules to advertise for new players, or finally fix ancient bugs or optimize for performance and stability.
The thing is, "players" are not an infinite ressource.
For people asking about a release date, I will direct you to the news link at the top of the forum. It was announced as November 18 about a week or more ago.

Making mod4 artifact equipment outdatet right away not cool, i just got them to legendary and they gonna need replacement in 10 days ffs. You should have skipped main hand and belt artifact this mod so to spare ppl of this feeling of having wasted time and money.

how is your belt outdated, depending on your class it could still be the best belt. for rogues none of the belts are attractive of pve. Str or dex will still be your belt of preferance.

Just wait till they get the idea to increase the levelcap.
As a relatively new player I was hoping someone could tell me what happens to the current campaigns I'm working my way through, when Tiamat comes online? I don't think I'll have enough time to complete IWD or Dread before the deadline. Do I try push forward or just wait for the new mod?
Cheers

Finish them at your own speed. They're not going anywhere.
Watched your Tiamat livestream. Please let Michael know that buffing Tiamat might not be such a good idea just yet - on the main server my toon has a GS of 18.7 but on the test server 22.5 GS.
Everyone on the 25 man team that you were playing alongside will more than likely have similar (only on the test server) buffs thanks to the ability to copy any amount of gear into the test server and purchase off hand artifact for 10 silver.
So when Mod5 goes live, please don't buff Tiamat based on test server player capability - it isn't a true reflection of current character capability.
Oh and good luck getting the performance issues sorted before release
Before Tiamat actually gets her butt in gear and rises, can we have a joke creature spawn?
I have a pitch.
Seriously.
Why not have a heroic encounter right outside the temple in the Well of Dragons, a formidable being worthy of hordes of adventurers battling it, a horrifying hybrid of insane power that players would have undoubtedly heard of in legends whispered around a crackling fire.
I present to you the Lagon.
Half llama, half dragon, wholly fearsome and guaranteed to bring in the masses.
Sure, the Lagon breathes fire (as is stereotypical for a dragon) and spits at enemies (as is stereotypical for a llama), but it's most powerful attacks are Elastic Scream (EXTREME RUBBERBANDING!™, which is a once off slingshot-like effect where you end up on the edge of the Well of Dragons map, on the floor, face down and looking at a rendered spot you'd never realized had even been thought about by the devs) and Stuttering Cry (all affected are in a state of lag for 6 interspersed periods of 4 seconds).
Okay so the Rise of Tiamat as been active for a while. Has anyone besides me had problems collecting those dang dragon treasure coffers? I must have played NW for like 13 hrs tuesday and only collected 20 of the stupid things. I was soooo frustrated. And it's not like there are any other quests being offered while that one is going on either. You either play it or you don't get any experience for killilng stuff. You just get junk. And who's bright idea was it to give you like a ton of dragon enchantments whenever you complete a heroic quest? I had like 40 of them after only two days. I ended up putting them up on the auction house because I didn't need them. I think the gms need to do some serious rework on this area. I'm almost dreading next thursday when her highness makes her appearance. Hope they didn't screw that up too bad.

Hey guys, I feel a little dumb for posting this.
Basically, I cannot figure out what the "Tiamat is coming" event is about. At this point, it only has one day left, and i'm wondering if there is some content I am suppose to explore before the event ends. The event description offers basically nothing but a story and no explanation of how to participate.
On top of that, I am also a little confused about how to play the new mod content. Where is the beggining quest for the tiamat content or is there something else you have to do?
If anyone could help me answer these questions,much appreciated. Thanks, and happy questing
I see your Lagon and raise you the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on!
Dare you face the dreaded Rabbit of Caerbannog? Nay, I say that you would soil your armour , it's got a vicious streak a mile wide and would do you up a treat!

Tiamat is Coming Event is the actual fight with Tiamat... a 20 person match from what I hear.
As to start off the new area Well of Dragons (WoD) there should be a new location on the world map, its down in the bottom right hand corner where Icespire Peak is.. go there and then ride to the base camp area and talk to Elminster. He will give you the initial quests for the area.

hope that helps.
So, do you have to cash in the coffers four times to get to Tiamat, is that what the hoard defender...etc is? I have 2 notches.
The thread is no longer relevant with the release of the Tiamat encounter, and mod 5 launched over a month ago. Please direct all feedback concerning Mod 5 and Tiamat to the provided sticky, "The Battle with Tiamat--Going Forward"

I can already feel the ****storm incoming.
Maybe that's the "Big thing" they plan for us in module 6.

It'd be fun.
