I'm running all three of the Epic adventures that WotC put out a while back. Death's Reach, Kingdom of the Ghouls and Prince of Undeath. Catch is, my players are solid at making their characters and they've just been curb stomping the encounters as they are. They've been up against 1 -1 level, 2 equal level, and 2 +1 level encounters and they just now got to the point where one of the members used up all of his healing surges (and even then it was the Invoker who only has 8).
So I'm looking for tips on how to ramp up the encounters? There's the obvious answer of "Use more monsters" but how much of encounter level increase do people think I should make? Go for all +1s? Maybe some +1s and +2s? Also any other tips beyond just throwing bigger things and more of them at my party?
