A player recently found a rare event in Diablo 4, encountering a level 1 butcher at the very beginning of the game. Beating the Butcher in Diablo 4 is a tough job, and when you're in the early game, you're even less prepared for such a tough fight.

The Butcher is one of the most iconic enemies in the Diablo series. Since he appeared in the first part of the series, players are afraid of him, and this has not changed in the latest installment of Blizzard's famous dungeon crawler. According to Blizzard's official data, 1.6% of all deaths in Diablo 4 were caused by the Butcher. In this title, he appears randomly and can be lurking around the corner literally at any moment, being one of the most feared bosses in the entire game, as he combines surprise and powerful stats in one fight.

A Diablo 4 player named Darksnipsy recently found a rather unusual phenomenon: a level 1 butcher. According to a player who shared this strange event on Reddit, the outcome of the tough fight was a bit of a disappointment as they managed to kill a rare boss, only to discover, that they dropped a tier 1 melee secondary. They only made it because it wasn't their first character, so despite being a tier 2 they already had full renown and made all the Lilith statues. It was enough to get more damage and some skill points that were game-changing at such a low level.

In the comments to the post, some players shared other interesting stories with the Butcher that show how random meeting him can be. Holysnowva, for example, recently founded Sorcerer and was unlucky enough to find the Butcher three out of four times in the first dungeons of the game, they claimed. Another player named Fallout71 had the opposite problem. They found him only once at level 15 and escaped, after which they were never able to meet the enemy again, which is one of the most difficult bosses in Diablo 4.

An encounter with the terrifying Butcher is usually a rather brutal event that ends in a gruesome death. However, a few weeks ago, one player managed to find something even rarer than a Tier 1 Butcher: the pacifist Butcher. In a hilarious video shared by a Diablo 4 player, a menacing boss can be seen escaping from the player while under constant attack, which likely happened due to a bug.
