Before fighting The Dancing Giant Butcher in Throne and Liberty, you should keep in mind that you need to reach at least level 30 to stand a chance of victory.

Here are some steps you can utilize to defeat the Giant Dancing Butcher in Throne and Liberty:

Keep an eye on the Butcher’s attack pattern and plan your attacks accordingly.
Timing your blocks and evades precisely can significantly limit the amount of damage you receive, giving you more time to focus on dealing damage.
