[QUOTE="Raunalyn, post: 7287041, member: 72670"] I was having difficulty challenging the higher level characters as well. This was especially true while using the WoTC published modules (looking at you, Out of the Abyss). I've had a remarkable amount of success challenging my group by using appropriately tiered monsters and adding class levels to them. One of my group's most challenging encounters was against a group of Driders that had levels in cleric, rogue, and wizard. The group couldn't just blow through them and had to think and strategize to win. Overall, it was a very satisfying encounter for all involved. Just yesterday, they fought an avatar of Lolth and her lieutenants (the group is level 17 right now). I used drow with class levels this time (one of them was a paladin...the group was kinda scared of her when she did a high level smite against the party's paladin). On top of that, the Avatar's lair actions were wreaking havoc. Again...a very satisfying and challenging encounter for all involved. [/QUOTE]
