It should mention somewhere on here that his level is determined by the Conclave rating of your gear.

That being said, even a Conclave-minimized loadout (rating of 561) using only 1 high-end weapon yields a level 16 Alad V/Zanuka. This is still plenty enough to kill the Saryn I've been using throughout my comment string for this shit, despite her having well over 1K health now.

Also, from what I can tell, his damage output didn't drop in the slightest from my last run (1000+ Conclave, level 32 boss), and I couldn't tell that much difference in how much my Despair were doing to him. So maybe the level thing is just false hope...who knows.

From what the other commenters are saying, he seems like a giant ploy to get people to play Mag and Vauban again, since they seem to outright destroy him.

My low-Conclave loadout, for those curious (no primary or melee used, just some unleveled POS):

Saryn (Venom, Flow, Focus, Vitality) 250 Conclave

Despair (Barrel Diffusion, Hornet Strike, Slip Mag, Ice Storm, Gunslinger, No Return, Pistol Ammo Mutation) 231 Conclave

No Sentinel
