As a Minstrel at 26 I soloed this quest but it was not easy. Helps to get the other quest to kill the North-hawks (A Bird in the Hand - http://lotro.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?lotrquest=659) also since these share the same area. There is a small area if you wonder down North East of the town and a cave that has about 4-5 of the lynx. Can be single pulled if you time it right. Had to heal once or twice depending how much the shouts and heralds hammers got resisted. If you get more then one at 26, run (unless you have a Lore-Master with you). Nice XP killing these solo as well - I think around 178 each one. Lynx range in level from 29-30. Not to mention almost every one will drop a Sturdy Hide.
