player level specification for missons in skyrim
I was playing Skyrim when I got the embassy quest in the main missions. When I got into battle with the guards I found them (even a single one) hard to defeat. So I thought I did not have a high enough level (my level was 8). Then I thought of abandoning the mission but I had no saves to load.
What should I do now?
Is there a reference to know which missions should be started at what level ?
I heard enemies get stronger as the player gets stronger. So even if I level up and then get back to this mission it wouldn't help would it ?

Appropriate player levels for quests and dungeons in general is too complex a topic, for a couple reasons, including:
- Quests in the main story line or in faction story lines generally have a minimum level.
- Enemies other than bosses have a minimum and maximum level and are scaled to player level within those ranges.
- Dungeons are generally scaled to player level when they are entered, but that level is not reset if the player leaves without clearing the dungeon.
- For some quests, skills or spells used matter more than general player level.
Both the Elder Scrolls Wiki and the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages have level information on named quests, dungeons, and enemies. There is also a page of hints on when to start missions and in which order, although most of the suggestions are vague and more a matter of personal preference.
For the Diplomatic Immunity quest specifically, Delphine describes the mission as an infiltration, so it's better to focus on non-violent approaches to solving the mission. Some mix of thief or mage skills are the best options, although potions and enchanted items may offer good substitutes. Without revealing any spoilers, both character race and gear can help avoid several combats without worrying about either character or skill levels. Only the end of the mission requires combat.
If you need to know enemy level details for Diplomatic Immunity, all the enemies are Thalmor, mostly generic types of level 1 through 36 (1 through 44 for Thalmor Wizards.)

Do Skyrim quests have levels?
Leveling in Skyrim is based on leveling up the individual skills. No experience is given for killing enemies or completing quests. Every time a skill goes up in proficiency, it progesses your character's experience bar by a certain amount, depending on how high the skill level is.What level should you be to beat the main quest in Skyrim?
This can lead to the whole confrontation feeling a little anti-climactic. As such, it is suggested that players be sure to enter Sovngarde no later than level 35 if they value the story (Suggested level in the Official Guide is 24). And that's for the last part of the main quest-line.What level should you be to do the Thalmor embassy?

Skyrim creatures and npc are leveled, so just coming back later without better gear won't change the outcome, leave the area ond do other quest or look for unique loot
if you feel like "cheating", level up bow skills and get the stealth perk that increases damage when undetected, only dragons can stand more than 1-2 sneak hits in vanilla skyrim
