Loving D3. I am a 15 monk and I just demolished the butcher. Am I a higher level than the fight was designed for or do I just have great gear?
In general I was wondering if there is a list somewhere, something that suggests: you should be level 8 at the skelly king, level 13 at the butcher, level 18 when you beat act I, etc etc. I find myself always wondering.
The only level guide I know of based on blizzard's balancing, is about on when you finished entire modes.
They expect you to finish normal at 30, for example.
Really, you shouldn't expect normal to be very challenging anyway. Normal is tuned so that a person with little skill can finish it in bad gear.

I grew up gaming without internet forums. The entire phenomenon of being upset with a game developer makes no sense to me. No sense. I cannot imagine spending my time and energy being upset about something I choose to do for recreation.
The butcher is pretty easy. He's just the TOC Yeti with fire on the floor.
It gets a little more interesting in Act 2 (just a little, though). The insects that shoot lines of smaller insects at you kinda suck. But that's about it. The biggest problem (for me) in Act2 is that lots of mobs blend in with the environment too well, especially at the beginning.
I was 16 at the butcher. On both toons. I'm not sure how you can't be 16 if you are exploring everything and killing everything.
I finished the butcher at 15, but I am not an exhaustive explorer.

I beat the butcher at level 16. I got to his door then a friend signed on who had just beat the spider queen so i ran through the warden again. I also explore a lot. The butcher felt very easy, but there were part that exposed you to death potentially which was fun. Can't wait to play through act 2 and possibly more today.

Am at work at the moment, but I think i'll do act 1 again from the start to get some additional levels and to go slowly through the lore.
