My experience with this NM
Of the 15-20 or so times that I've spawned this NM, most of them were solo or in a party of 2-3 and he spawned incredibly weak and died in 3 or 4 hits. I have popped him 3 times while on the way to limbus, and each time we had 6 or more people trading items to spawn it, and each time it was far more difficult than when I spawned it by myself or with a few people. It also gave us 2 gold beastcoins on one occasion (possibly TH working) and 15-20 EXP. This would indicate that the method by which his level is determined is not completely random, but is an average of the players who traded items to spawn it. Most of the time the players trading items to it are of low level and are probably heading to the dunes or low level parties, so it normally spawns low level.

I've also read in a few places that people have had similar experiences to mine. We should write that it spawns as an average of the levels of the people who tried to spawn it, and put a verification tag on it, if anyone has actually tested it. That would be better than saying the level is completely random, which is misleading because a low level character might try to spawn it after he saw a bunch of 75s try to, and get killed b/c he hoped it would randomly spawn lower when there was no chance it would have. Saying it's completely random is speculation, and so is saying it's an average. However, the latter would assist players trying to spawn it more, and is also more likely given the experiences I've found that people have been having (including myself).
