I’ve beaten him three times now, but my god he is terrifying and hard to kill at lower levels. My 55 barb just pastes him into a wall, but I was just playing my lvl 22 necro and he almost killed me multiple times.

    I think I’ve seen him once, around level 15-20. He killed me pretty quickly and I haven’t seen him since.

    I actually would have forgotten he existed if it wasn’t for people pointing out he’s a thing on social media.

    As a lvl 50 necro I just run when I see him. He ignores all my minions and just beelines it straight to me. I could maybe take him now if I was using a golem but I sacrificed my golem for my current build.

      Butcher wants fresh meat, why would he go after your bony af skeltals??? Of course he went straight for you!

      It’s a little cheesy, and ruins the fun of a Butcher attack; but you if run very tight circles around him, he can’t hit you.

    I only ever managed to kill him thanks to getting conduit shrine just before encountering him. Got him to like 20% health and then barely survived the rest.

    So damn right I’m still afraid of him.

    That SOB jumped me out of nowhere today while I was already dragging around half a dungeon on my necro chasing a loot goblin. Needless to say, the loot goblin lived, and I did not.

    Yes, he still scares me. I’ve killed him a number of times on WT2 and WT3. Then I got to WT4 at level 65 and he’s practically unkillable again. I chased a treasure goblin straight into him, so now I’ve taken to calling the goblins “Lazarus”… as in “The bastard led us into a trap! Now everyone is dead, killed by a demon he called the Butcher.”

            I’m at the same level. He was going so fast that my skellys couldn’t even get a swipe in. I was running away, they were chasing. It was an impossible situation

    I met him 3 times during one day. Honestly the first time I didn’t even notice as I was chasing a treasuregoblin, when I got dropped to low health that’s when I noticed the healthbar.

    I was a squishy level 54 sorcerer at one point and he came outta nowhere and started hunting me down like Hellboy on crack coccaine. He scared the shit out of me and I died after having whittled down his health bar to the last quarter.

    I beat him once with a friend and another time when he spawned conveniently right next to a Conduit totem. If I see him again, I think I can impale him with my ice shard build, but we’ll see :)

      With my bleeds now, I absolutely cream him at any difficulty. But man, for a while it was terrifying.
