Comments
Any of my comments not posted in orange are based on my own personal opinion and not official.

(Okay, yeah, it is, assuming nothing catches on fire.)
The Arcanic Focus issue is solved, as far as I am concerned. I'm happy with the solution. The perma lock-out of the Dig sites issue is still present, but there is a simple trick to unlock them, so this is not a major issue.
That leaves two issues: Ornately carved boxes stacking only to 5 This is pretty annoying when you have 50+ of those. Any chance of getting them to stack to 99? Then there is the HE bug-out.. I have completely given up on doing any of the big HEs other than the Treasure ship - the others fail too frequently, stuck in the middle of the reinforcement phase.
Finally, profession resources. The number of different resources has been increased (in Mod10 and Mod 11), but the number of profession resource slots has not. Weird things happen when you get a new resource and no slots are available for it. Please consider giving us a few more slots - we will really need them if Mod 11-B brings any new resources.
Speaking of Mod 11-B, I know you cannot comment on it or the schedule, but I am going to make a prediction nevertheless - it will be released April 18th or 25th. The 18th is after the 2xRP weekend when most people who went for the M11 weapons will be getting them to legendary status, and will have finished the M11 campaign. I don't expect to see M11-B before that date.
By the 25th, practically everyone will have finished M11 and some people will be getting bored and looking for something new - I would not want to see M11-B delayed much more than that.
I consider the M11 campaign flawed in the sense that there is nothing to encourage people to come back to it after they have completed it. By comparison, I go regularly to Dread Ring (chance of greater marks), Sharandar (Fey Blessing enchants), ToD (Dragon Hoard Enchants) and IWS (Frozen Treasures voucher for the guild). Even Underdark and Maze engine have something to encourage me to come back. But M11? No...sorry. When I'm done with it, I'm done - well, apart from the Arcane key, but it seems that the chest rewards are not that interesting so I'll probably not do that often. I hope M11-B does not have this issue.
Edit: Revised prediction:
I had not looked at the calendar before I made the prediction above, but when I did, it became clear I was off by a week .... there is no way Mod 11-B will go live until after the Portobello event is finished, so April 18th is out.
So, there is a chance the release date will be April 25th, but considering what the calendar looks like, May 2nd is even more likely....so that's my current prediction. (And yes, I know you cannot comment on it)
Signature [WIP] - tyvm John

I'll never retrace my steps.
Some of my best friends are Imaginary.
As an example, right now I have completed all previous campaigns for my main, character, gotten all the boons and so on. I am not quite at BiS yet - but I'm slowly getting there. Right now, may "daily" task is just the Mod11 one - which takes less than an hour. If I have more time, I will do the 3 optional M11 quests or a few HEs - but that's it...there is nothing else I feel I "have" to do. I have 16 alts, 8 of which I used to play somewhat actively, but eventually I just felt burned out - the game is not particularly alt-friendly, and it was starting to feel more like "work" than a fun game.
So, I just play a single alt now, get the "must do" tasks out of the way as quickly as possible, and then spend any remaining time just on whatever I enjoy.
Meanwhile, M11 gamebreaking bugs reported hundred of times are still there and not even a word about them.

Dragon's thirst (one of the choices for final boons in ToD campain) claims to give 3%/4%/5% life steal yet the first rank gives 4%, probably the next ranks give 5%/6%, my preview isn't loading so i cant tell.
Paladins cant reclaim a shield of the golden dragon from harper's legion merchant however it can be purchased from the campain store window.
Previewing an armour/weapon piece through the campain window vendor will send the preview back, not allowing rotation, zooming etc...this gets fixed by going back 1 step on the store, needing to go back always to preview another armour.
