Scavenger Hunt: Griffin School Gear quest level 11 attacked by a level 20 Leshen = Fail...+ Broken... :(
I'm playing the Scavenger Hunt: Griffin School Gear. Which is a reccomended quest level 11.
I'm level 13, so expected a pretty much easy path as it's the first part of 6 Griffin School gear collections to do.

Wrong! besided being attacked by a pack of level 7 wolves -easy. I'm also constantly attacked by a morphing Leshen level 20!!! which constantly apears within the radius circle of the sais quest.

You can see the quest name top right and the Leshen level 20! It's broken as i cannot -obviously, defeat this creature along with the wolves as it's 8 levels higher than me and my weapons,armor are only equipped to my current level....

Also i do not have *auto leveling on* for monsters etc. in the options.

It's not broken, it's realism: a task may fit your progress but the environment may be not.

So? Go back when you have a high enough level.

It is broken, the Leshen only *spawns* within the projected circle that you search in for the grave.

As long as you are outside it, it never appears...
A tip: there's not the only one enter to the cave.

It's an 11 level quest WTF! I'm level 13, i've never had in issue before. Sure the environment off the beaten track is full of HUGE monsters -that's meant to be, but 8 LEVELS higher than me for an 11 level quest...yep, it's broken

That's not broken. It spawns because it protects the treasure.

I know that, but it's LEVEL 20 when it's suppoed to be a MINIMUM level 11 quest. There is an obvious reason why they put quest level markers for the player.

I've been underground as well and the level 20 spawns there too. It doesn't matter how skilled you are if you can only wear level 13 armor and weapons.......It needs corrected.

Pretend that you are playing Dark Souls and this is a boss fight. Problem Solved?

There are 2 options. Wait or fight. Make your choice.

There's always a third way (for the grave at least).

It's alright i completed it. Switched off last night switched on now and loaded my save and the Leshen never spawned again. Got the gear. :steamhappy:
And didn't even try to walk around and search for a lovely hidden exit to enter through it :P
That's what i call cheating.

I encounterd this aswell. thought it was rather strange. I attemped this level 11 quest when i was level 10, this is my 5th playthru of the game and i've never ever seen it before. I'd figure that if it was supposed too happen it would've happend in the playthrue's before but no. But as a level 13 you are more than capable of killing a level 20 Leshen. I dont know what difficulty you play on but i play on the 2nd highest (blood and broken bones) and i had to fight 5 wolves of level 8, a vampire of level 11 and a level 20 leshen WHEN I WAS LEVEL 10! With terrible gear and i still won. Its quite a slow fight as you spend most time dodging and rolling but you will get there.
