The Butcher will usually fixate on one player, switching targets after killing them. If he wipes your team, he will disappear in a blob of blood and you’ll have to save your revenge for another encounter. You’ll also have to be on the lookout for his hook pull, which will stun you for a couple of seconds\u2014which is more than enough for the boss to pummel you if you can’t break free.<\/p>
Because of that frantic, relentless moveset, high-mobility classes such as Sorcerer and Rogue have an advantage when it comes to kiting the Butcher. Barbarians and Druids can also use their Unstoppable abilities to escape the Butcher. When we were fighting off the Butcher as a Necromancer, we had <\/em>to rely on Blood Mist as an escape from his hook, because otherwise we would be completely dead. Necromancers also don’t really have much mobility, so know you’ll have to try your best to kite him if he’s chasing you.<\/p>
Lastly, the Butcher also has a strong attack that will stun you with the first hit, then he’ll unleash a series of blows while you’re defenseless. Again, Unstoppable and immunity to crowd control are vital in this fight.<\/p>
