Would like to try and target farm for the Butcher's mount armor cosmetic: "Fresh Meaty Barding"

But it's a low chance drop from killing a Butcher, which is also a low random spawn in dungeons...

1. Anyone know the most efficient way to target farm the Butcher?
- Is there a best dungeon to reset over and over (e.g. small, high-density) to have higher chance to spawn Butcher?

2. If no, are there any confirmed findings on:
- Does Butcher spawn more frequently with more players in party?
- Does Butcher spawn more frequently in higher level dungeons / NM dungeons?
- Does Butcher spawn more frequently in higher Elite density dungeons?
- Any other useful information?

Most people seem to suggest it's all random but would be great if anyone had any tips!

Never noticed a consistency. Seems completely random to me and rare. Just gotta grind dungeons

One thing I've noticed is if u find a treasure Goblin usually butcher is there somewhere. As far as dungeon to run I'd pick something that doesn't have a bunch of doors to open and little rooms he might be hiding in. Maybe somethin like Sirocco where it doesn't take a lot of time to check everywhere

it's worth noting that he can also spawn in cellars, maybe faster to just speed check them as opposed to dungeons.

Thanks all, will give all these a shot. Bump in case anyone else have had other experiences.

I runned several dungeons this season and it like 90% he was there, I just tried leveling so I could not even damage him and was forced to go back untill he desappears.

How stupid need the devs to be to implement this.

best to do full clears in your nm dungeons, ive found him plenty of times in tiny rooms people usually bypass when clearing. yep he litterally be in a little square room and just him in there waiting for me to open the door. lol

Buy a 2nd account, i just started playing 3 days ago and i got him on my first 5 hc chars rip'ing two of them, now that ive played i havnet seen him once lol

hes literally only looking for "Fresh Meat"
