Considering how a fight I had with the Sewer Beast went using Taunshu one time, I suspect the 'change' is more in how its classification as an elite is changed, not its actual stats as far as HP and other factors. At level 48 I had tried to take it on one time. After about 15 seconds of letting loose a nearly full mana bar worth of max DPS firing, I had done only about 5% damage to it while it had shreaded through Orion like he was paper. Any other normal or silver boarder mob of only +2 levels would usually have near dead or dead from that type of onslaught while at best only doing maybe 50% damage to Orion. The way the fight was going was more like I was fighting a mob many levels higher than indicated and with hit points like an elite of that higher level.
P.S. At that point Taunshu just took off swiming for her life to avoid being its next snack.
