[QUOTE="OnlineDM, post: 5713322, member: 90804"] If you're running older published adventures exactly as written in the original publication, then yes, you're going to find things to be too easy for most parties, especially at higher levels. If you're creating your own encounters, then the difficulty level is totally up to you. If no more than one or two PCs was bloodied in a battle, then it was an easy encounter. If almost everyone was bloodied and one or two fell unconscious or came close, and some daily powers were used, then it was a good challenge. If nearly everyone fell unconscious at some point and the PCs pulled out all the stops, burning every daily, every action point, and just barely prevailed, then it was a really hard encounter. Note that the use of encounter powers doesn't make a difference in my perception of encounter difficulty. I assume that PCs will be using lots of encounter powers in every battle - that's what they're there for! [/QUOTE]
