[QUOTE="AaronOfBarbaria, post: 6956238, member: 6701872"] I haven't yet made it to 20th level in a 5th edition campaign (real life time constraints being the cause - not the game rules breaking down, which as far as I've seen they don't, or lack of interest). What I can say about designing 20th-level adventures is this: Better to design the adventure for a specific set of characters, involving what they care about and what they've accomplished along the way to reaching 20th level, than to try and create an adventure that is assumed to work for any given 20th-level party because there are just too many variables to consider for that to actually be plausible. As for practical steps, I'd say the first is to sit down with your players and discuss what it is that they desire and expect from playing at that level. Then the only step to take is to deliver on those desires and fulfill those expectations, which shouldn't be hard for any DM that has been playing the game long enough for a campaign to naturally reach that level.
