Tips
  • When fighting The Butcher, dodge his unblockable attacks first, then look for opportunities to counterattack his blockable follow-up attacks.
  • If The Butcher breathes fire, get to his flank to attack him unopposed while he is stationary.
  • There is no incentive to join the fight against The Butcher immediately; wait for him to defeat the Antaam attacking him first.
