Rakanoth, like [[Izual]], is a heavy melee fighter. However, he doesn't move as much as the fallen angel, but he is no less dangerous. Rakanoth will utilize ranged [[AoE]] attacks, summons, and can also teleport.
Below are a list of his abilities:
* '''Cleave''' - [[File:Portrait_boss_RakanothCleave]], like that of the [[Barbarian]], is Rakanoth's standard melee attack.png|left|frame|RakanothHe will attack with either one or both of his arm blades, Lord hitting anything in range. This attack is capable of Anguishhitting multiple players or minions.]]
* '''Teleport''' - Rakanoth is able to [[teleport]] to the player, but usually only does this when they are out of range of his attacks. He also has a "teleport away" ability where he will teleport across the arena in order to begin his summoning ability.
* '''Blade Strike''' - Rakanoth will teleport to the player and, turning a bright blue, will lunge his arm blades into the hero. This attack does very high damage.
* '''Volley''' - The Lord of Anguish will rise into the air, spread his arms outwards, and fire off a volley of blue spinning blades. The blades will not penetrate the pillars that are around the arena, so the player can take shelter behind them during this attack.
* '''Summon Minion''' - Rakanoth will appear as if he is going to fire a volley, rising into the air, but instead he'll spin around slowly in a circle, lobbing volley blades around the arena. After the attack is finished, two to three [[Soul Devourer]]s will spawn near the hero, in full tongue-lashing glory. The minions drop [[health globes]].
