Focus on leveling, and you may have to spend some gems. Your hires stats are pulled down by your own. The stronger you are the more of their potential you unlock. I also suspect that Gree has something implemented to make the first lvl 15, 43, and 60 boss one fights unusually strong. Once you beat it subsequent ones appear to become easier.
