The ones I fought had Lightning Javelin too. 84.101.140.84 02:03, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * List isn't complete, but make sure you list skills of the accurate level since these new enemies scale in difficulty (i.e., levels and likely skill amount). -- Konig / talk 02:06, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Their bar seems to be the same at lvl 12. Aro [[Image:User_Aro_Signature_Logo.gif]] 02:44, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd guess they are one level below the group leader (or the player with the higher level). The ones I encountered (with lvl 17) were level 16, so it's definitely not only 9, 12 and 15. –User ARTy sig.png 04:41, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Level 9 against my level 10 mesmer but they did damage that made them seem like level 15. I had to let my imp kill them. Ramei Arashi 04:58, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * @Aro: There are only 3 levels for these enemies. Don't recall the levels from when I was testing the content, but I wouldn't doubt that 15 was just mis-reading on someone's part. -- Konig / talk 05:27, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Like I said, the screen said they were level 9 but there damage output was higher than that. Ramei Arashi 06:26, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Remember that your armor is largely inferior to the armor of a post-searing character of your level. That's what makes them hurt you harder than they should (at least, i think so). 84.101.140.84 11:30, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * While is is possible to get armor in Pre via traders, that is a good point - Although, gaining DP is inexistent in Pre so the penalty for dying is just walking back to the enemies. 72.70.225.18 12:35, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * You get a buff which increases your armour by an unspecified amount while this quest is active. Also, Konig, not to argue with a member of the TK, but I feel fairly confident that I saw this mob at level 16 too. The associated mobs were 15, but this one was 16. I've already completed the quest on my high-level character, though, so I can't check right now. --Wormwood 13:03, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Tested it with the help of someone who still has the quest. Ringleader was indeed 16. --Wormwood 13:36, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't know why you felt that you were arguing against me, I was merely stating that the 15 could be wrong and that there were only 3 levels for the NPC. -- Konig / talk 18:54, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * /shrug I figured that you were more likely to know what you were talking about than me. --Wormwood 20:00, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Is this a recurring quest?
In other words, can you get and complete the quest, go back to the npc, rinse/repeat, all the way until LDoA? --Ulterion 05:36, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * The new pre-searing quests act like the Zaishen Bounties and so forth. Just with unique, randomly placed, spawns. -- Konig / talk 05:49, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
