How do enemies level up?

[dire quiver]

I'm still fairly new to the game and I read somewhere that enemies scale up with the player level and I wonder is it true?
And if it is when do they start to become stronger?
And do zones have a certain level cap to them?
Thanks in advance

Enemies scale by level in timed events such as shootout spot , train attack and the rest ... in locations their level is limited around the location level

Also , enemies in events will be scaled based on your personal level

So let's just say that I'm level 43 and in a timed event I should expect level 43 enemies or is it calculated different?

Unfortunately i don't know the exact formula ... but you can just look at the location level to figure it out

Thanks this cleared out some of my other questions

No problem

Hey Mario do canyon trials and spirit cave also scale you player level or not?

No , they become harder and harder based on how many waves or rooms you completed

Individual difficulty of each wave/room stays the same all the time

enemies get harder by region:
around ranch 5-45(animals)
dried forest and north of Rocky Pass 50-65(animals)
South of old bridge 70-85(animals)
East, swamps 90-105(animals)
boreal wilds 90+(bandits) 110- 140(animals)

wild pigs in south up are 75

lower pigs are level 5

If I remember correctly, in timed events there are several lvls.
For example: old road/train attack etc lvl 40, lvl 60, lvl 80, lvl 100
Usually the events lvl up to the next difficulty when you pass the last lvl by a few.
Meaning: if your character hits lvl 45 , the events become lvl 60 until your character gets to lvl 65 and then the events become lvl 80.

It’s not exactly like this but more or less.
