Is it fair to cast save-or-suck spells on the players?

[QUOTE="Azurewraith, post: 7150757, member: 6798581"] The players are level 19 if combat turned into a slugfest it would be pointless PCS would win due to low monster ACS it would just be a question of how many rounds and how many HPS the PC's will have to heal with there infinite supplies of potions(what else they doing with all that gold?). All of the spells offer something to resist them be it a save,check or high HP each spell can also be counter spelled or disable the caster(silence,darkness or binding there hands). I don't know you or your group so I'm going to generalize here and I will apologize if it sounds offensive etc I'm not meaning to offend anyone. To me it sounds like your PCs :):):):)ed up they either didn't plan ahead and bring countermeasures or brought them and failed to implement them and as a result are butt hurt at the end of the day these are level 19pcs they can trivialize most encounters and well a level 19 character is going into a home soon anyway so why not die instead. This may be slightly off topic but I have never believed in this notion of the PCs are supposed to win, don't get me wrong I'm not the kind of guy that's going to double tap a PC or send 3 dragons at a lvl 1party or anything but if failure isn't an option where is the point in character sheets and dice? You may as well tell a joint cinematic story. [/QUOTE]
