I use an EL calcutator to help me to restrain my urge to sic 4 5th level Orc Rangers on my low level heroes. EL keeps DMs from launching potentionally TPK siutation at their heroes. As a DM the only excuse I could think of for throwing big monsters at a party is because how the game is structured. Some players really enjoy pklaying big bad characters weighed down with powers, and some DMs love to use new monsters. I know, from experience, that I've always wanted to use certain monsters in my campaigns, but never got the chance. If I wasn't as fair as I am I could very well say "Well they'll figure out that the black phoenix is too hard for them and run for it." it's really easy to second guess a DM but realize for every hour you spend playing the game he's spent at least two building the campaign and coming up with adventures.</blockquote>
