True, I strongly agree that most players should avoid rolled stats like the plague. High power level campaigns are not for the feint of heart. They are extremely difficult to play, let alone DM. Designing an encounter to go head to head with the party's builds is not an easy task, despite the DM having virtually unlimited power regarding the game rules. Both the players and the DM must have an extremely high understanding of the rules being abused. But at the end of the day; when everything becomes overpowered, nothing is.
