What I would do is click on a torch for the extra MF and run, run, run,
killing everything I could and opening chests as fast as I could until
the torch ran out. Then I'd go back and inspect the drops, then rinse
and repeat. Ten minutes into this process, I was exhausted. :-)

I'm not sure what version you're playing, but Drognan should be near
the WP for the Sewers Level 2. Take the WP then consult your Automap
and you should locate him.

im sure i'll be going back there a number of times.... also seems like
a good area to lv up at.... or at least to kill things when poppin the
chest gets boring...

The first time I ran into the Butcher was with a level 14 Assassin and
my friend a level 13 Sorceress... can you say slaughter? The Sorc got
killed about ten or twelve times - eventually we used her as bait to
draw him into a room and closed the doors on him. We still had access
through some bars, but we could not even touch him...

The first time I hit Andy's level was with a level 27 Barb - of course
he found both KL and the Butcher... after many deaths, I managed to draw
the Butcher back into his room and close the door on him. KL, on the
other hand, I drew away from his friends and eventually took him down.
It was quite the battle, and he dropped nothing... go figure. Andy was
such an anticlimax after that...
