Like all monsters, deities still croak at 0 hp. That's good enough for me.
If
wotc didn't want something to be fought, much less killed, they wouldn't have bothered with stats for it (partly the reason why they had the anemic cr20-odd demon lords in fiendish codex 1).
You can come up with a campaign hook to lower Tiamat's stats down to a more reasonable level for your party, but as written, there is nothing wrong with simply pitting her as is against your party. All it really does is further encourage optimization (or at least, until
wotc releases rules allowing your party to exceed lv30), because that is pretty much the only way your party is going to be able to defeat her consistently.
Am I alone in thinking that this whole taboo about gods being untouchable simply has to go?
And yet another word from our sponsors
