[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 6107345, member: 82106"] Sounds like a high optimization lovel oversized party. Its going to be TOUGH. The problem is, they can almost surely handle some level 17 Solo (the max level that is normally considered appropriate). So, either you will need more than just a solo, or you'll need several of them in a row, like maybe your staged thing (I'm not sure what exact techniques you're using there). The other option of course is a very hostile environment with a lot of places that the BBEG can leverage it (but be careful that it doesn't help the PCs even more).
