So how do Monsters Level up?

I was just curious as to how monsters leveled up. The wiki offers 3 different mentions as to how, all being different. As jungle xp has changed pretty significantly this patch I felt like monster levels should be kept watch over for leveling reasons as a jungler.

Earlier in a game, I was underlevled, by one level, but I did a full clear and ended up being 2 levels higher than everyone out of almost nowhere.

Also is the bonus xp from talisman/machete unique or additive?

From what I've know. Neutral normal monsters level up with death.

First time you kill red buff, he's weak, 2nd time he'll get slightly stronger and so on until a cap.

Dragon and baron slowly level up with Time, so that teams fed at 20 minutes can't contest it easy.

Don't think Rift Herald levels up since he already has shit tons of HP.

It should be the average level of every champ in game.

As far as I know Dragon and Baron continually adjust to the average level of all Champions in game.

Jungle monsters only adjust to the average level at spawn. Though I'm not entirely sure whether they adjust to the average as well or relative to their own previous level.
