Can Spawn As Any Element

There's a chance for the Butcher to spawn without or with an element. It can spawn with any of the 5 elemental types, but it's completely random which one you'll get.

Fast Fire Rate

The Butcher has probably one of the fastest fire rates for a shotgun. Holding down on the trigger will have this weapon going through its magazine in a snap.

How To Get The Butcher

Random World Drop

This weapon is a random world drop, meaning that you may be able to get it from defeating enemies, opening loot chests, or even from slot machines! However, below are some ways for you to easily farm legendary weapons.

Check Out How To Farm Legendaries Here!

Farm the Graveward

Farm the Graveward

The Graveward is a great high level farming boss as it has a high probability of dropping Legendary Loot. Make sure to equip the Porcelain Pipe Bomb Grenade Mod as it can quickly decimate the Graveward's health!

Farm the Chupacabratch

Farm the Chupacabratch

The Chupacabratch is a Legendary Hunt objective that you complete for Hammerlock. Due to how easy it is to defeat, you can keep reloading the game and defeating it in order for it to drop a legendary.

Farm Loot Tinks

Farm Loot Tinks

Loot Tinks are a great way for you to score Legendary Loot! Defeating them will initially drop several items. You must then interact with their bags to open them up and possibly spawn a legendary weapon!

NOTE: Please note that due to the Sep 19 Patch, chances of dropping legendaries have been lowered.
