Why does D&D still have 16th to 20th level?

[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 8698961, member: 5889"] Yeah from a DM's standpoint, this is probably the "easiest" part of running high levels. I build my encounters based on pure creativity, not having a clue how my party is going to figure things out or survive the encounters. hehe I still remember I did a dungeon with an adamantium golem in an anti-magic field that was with a horde of devils. The golem was effectively immune to damage, and teleports were shut down in this particular area. The party eventually used the actor feat of all things to win, they heard one of the devil give the golem an order, and then in a perfect mimicry of the devil's voice said, "golem, kill all devils and take no further orders until you are finished". The golem drove the devils out of the field, and the party wiped them out one by one as they ran out. Afterwards my players asked, "so how did you think we were going to handle that?" And I just looked at them and shrugged, "you all have the big boy pants on, no training wheels from me anymore" [/QUOTE]
