Simon Belmont "??" Level Bug + Normal/Relaxed Bosses Have Brutal Scaling
Simon Belmont spawned with a skull icon and red name at my level 61. He followed me into my territory and was killed by my servants. I drank his blood. Since then, he's marked "??" level and Challenging—even now at my level 85.
Later, at my 75+ gear level, I found several bosses on Normal and Relaxed difficulties were scaled to Brutal, for example:
— Terrorclaw — Level 79 (should be 76)
— Voltatia — Level 82 (should be 79)
— Lord Styx — Level 87 (should be 84)
Bosses that seem unaffected and properly scaled: Azariel, Dantos, General Valencia.
Other bosses haven’t been tested yet, so more issues might exist.
The issue began on May 11, 2025, and continued through several hotfixes, including Hotfix 8.
I haven’t changed the game or used any mods.
🔧 I tried changing the game difficulty, re-equipping my gear, restarting the PC, updating drivers, deleting the 'v4' settings folder, and verifying the game files three times.

IrisBelmont has unique passive, he always scaling with your actual existing lvl.
That's why he's always "??"
About others, I've no clue, looks like they have his passive also.
