How To Find the Butcher
You can find the bitcher in any dungeon run. It can be a Nightmare Dungeon or just a typical dungeon. However, the Butcher has a slight chance of spawning, so there’s never a guarantee that he will appear. The Butcher usually shows up once or twice out of 20 dungeon runs. However, when he decides to show up, you will know it. You will see a large mass of enemies covered in chains screaming, “Fresh meat” at you. As soon as you hear the phrase, be on the lookout because you’re about to face one of the most challenging mini-bosses in Diablo 4.
