[QUOTE="Targos, post: 70656, member: 2655"] I enjoy the lower/mid levels more myself when it comes to DMing. Honestly I don't think the game is designed to challenge a high level party. I'd think most players would get bored. Think about it. A pit fiend is one of the biggest monsters around and its only CR16. A single pitfiend is an equal match for 4 level 12 characters. Thats only mid level in the scope of 20 levels. Honestly the PCs start to get the real power with things like teleport and scry and they get those by level 9. I don't know how many times the last party I ran used scry and waited until the enemy went to sleep and teleported in an killed him in his sleep. Of course you can continue to challenge the PCs with level 20 NPCs, monsters with class levels, and wyrms for dragons, but honestly generating those statistics is a lot of work and how common are things like that anyhow. Dragons would be endangered quite easily by the end of the campaign. [/QUOTE]
