    I think you have to be level 9 or below for the drops to be L10.

    I asked a guy who looted a 10 and that's what he said as well.

    The drops are scaled to the highest level in the map.

    So if your level 10 and there is a level 20, the drop will be level 20.

    The level of drop is indicated by the difficulty meter. You want it to be ideally white, white is level 10 drops. Yellow can be level 10, but will usually be 15. Red will always be 15 unless there is a higher level then 10 in the dungeon. The boss will stay red unless you clear the entire map. It turns yellow when some mobs are left, and white when 95% or more of the map cleared. Kinda like STS's anti rushing system.

    It's in the circle next to their health bar.

    Also referred to as "threat level".

    If SL threat level works like in PL now, threat level won't even determine drop level. I haven't paid much attention to threat level at SL bosses because really, all it affects now is how much xp you'll get.
