Wrong. It's not like you can only make use of crystal on Butcher. You can profit from it during fights where you can find boss standing still for at least for 10 seconds once in a while. In fights with a lot of wave-based adds, like Darmak, it's even better to use the crystal, because for every crystal you are going to have an orb on top of it (improved blizzard). On Twin Oggron it's also good, because even though the damage is split between 2, the overall damage is the same as it would have been if it only hit 1, because they have shared health. You get the idea.
