[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 5591795, member: 463"] I think Paragon offers the widest range of adventures and monsters, from up-levelled Heroic to de-levelled Epic; Heroic threats can become Paragon Minions, Epic threats can become Paragon Solos. Paragon PCs are super-heroic but have not transcended humanity. The default scale of Paragon is one I like - nations & empires, political conflict, save the kingdom - and easier to relate to than Epic's save the universe/reality/the spacetime continuum. That said, I have never DM'd or played 4e Paragon; my current campaign I DM (Vault of Larin Karr) will wrap up soon after 2 years (June 2009-July 2011) at around 9th level, at least for now, and doesn't seem particularly suitable for extension into Paragon. The one I play in (Punjar) is scheduled to top out at 9th too; and my next planned campaign (Wilderlands 4e) is provisionally 3rd-9th, although I'm hoping the Heroic tier stuff might set the groundwork for a Paragon Wilderlands campaign. I like the idea of starting a campaign at Paragon, but I don't see much support for this approach from WoTC. The kind of thing I'd like for Paragon is a campaign where PCs start as the rulers and national champions of realms, more King Arthur than Trollhaunt Warrens - the published Paragon adventures don't seem notably different from Heroic Tier stuff.
