Can an Ancient Greater Water Elemental be a lower level than a normal greater water elemental? Or does 720 not give me my trophy?

That thing was super peeved off too, it wasn't easy to take down. Took me 3 tries, getting two 10 round stuns, each forcing me to go back and get healed before I finally killed it. It's not the first one I've killed and noticed I didn't get credit for it.

Sorry if this isn't the right place to post it, but I'm not sure where else would be appropriate.

Yes.

Greater water elementals are base 105, which means they can be anything from 100-110 under normal circumstances. I think ancient gets an extra 5 levels which puts it between 105 and 115. So if your top one was 110, which seems quite likely if you've been hunting them a bit, you'd need to get an above average ancient to displace it.

I've always assumed that ancient/grizzled monsters spawn at base level +5. If that's the way it works, then you would expect the next normal spawn at base level +5 to replace the ancient/grizzled spawn of the same level.

Regardless, I've never been able to keep an ancient lich as my profile foe, so I feel your pain!

From what I've seen I figure it is +5 levels over the one you just killed to cause its spawn but it could also just be random too.
