Just the size of the light stalkers was enough to understand that they would have higher agility than the average monster the party faced.
Add on the fact that they are also predators of more intelligent races, well, they would be used to fighting those with unique skills or more developed fighting style meaning that they could actually be somewhat of a threat to the party if the party was not careful.
This didn't mean that they were too strong for the party though. They had fought large and small monsters. They had even fought races of various sizes. They would not doubt their skills and strength in fighting the monsters now dashing toward them with sharp claws prepared to slash through them using destructive light mana.
