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.

TIL this is a thing, it has not happened to me at all.

[–] ShakeThatYam@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

After I learned he existed he started popping up for me in like every 5th dungeon πŸ˜‚

[–] _spiffy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I just get mad! He is a total dick and often kills me then runs away :(

[–] Goronmon@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

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.

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.

[–] ShakeThatYam@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Might try that next time so I can say I killed him at least once.

[–] Shiroa@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] Sinnz@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

I’m lvl 50 and I haven’t seen him once.

FRESH MEAT!

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.

[–] pixelbounds@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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.

the bastard appeared once and one shotted me. I am waiting for him to come back for a rematch

[–] VoxAdActa@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Ahh. Fresh meat!

[–] Jikiya@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I have only beat him once of the four times I've seen him since release. Was on a sorc, and was doing laps around a pillar while my hydra wore him down. Felt like a 15 minute fight. And I feel like there were 11 potions used. All in the name of trying to stay away from him.

[–] hal9001@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Every single time. I'm 0 for 3 against the butcher

Ran into him again last night... Now I'm 0 to 4 πŸ”ͺ

[–] heffa@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dang! Running T3 LVL 55 and I nearly got him last time... He sure moves fast for a big fella

[–] hal9001@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] GillyGumbo@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I love the butcher mechanic. Definitely been splattered a few times by him, but it's a very fun feeling hearing him in later levels.

[–] UrbenLegend@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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 :)

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] illi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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.
