Lethal Company Butler strategy and location

One of the many additions to Lethal Company in the Version 50 update is the Butler enemy. This is one of the two new enemies in this update and features a pretty goofy-looking but typical Lethal Company character who can be annoying to deal with but also drops a useable Butcher Knife weapon on defeat. Here’s the best strategy to deal with the Butler as well as where you can find the new enemy.

How to kill the Butler in Lethal Company

The Butler enemy in Lethal Company has both a passive and an aggravated state. It’s easy to tell the difference between the two, as while in his passive state, the Butler will simply sweep his broom across the floor as he walks around. However, once the Butler gets close enough to you he will enter his aggravated state and pull a Butcher Knife from inside his jacket, and immediately start stabbing you to death if close enough. Another tip to track his state is listening to the music. Nice melodic music typically plays from the Butler. But once he enters the aggravated state, it changes.

Once it gets close enough, sometimes it will also start inflating its head and once it pops, Mask Hornets will spawn around it. They will fly around searching for you, so you have to essentially trap them in another room so they can’t keep chasing you.

The best strategy for dealing with the Butler is to stay in a group. The Butler is not as likely to enter his aggravated state, and therefore you can strategize to carry out a well-coordinated attack on the Butler. It takes six hits with the Shovel to take out the Butler. Doing so will cause him to drop the Butcher Knife, an extremely powerful and fast-attacking weapon but with an extremely close melee range.
