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. His instant hitting teleport attack is by far his most dangerous ability, and it can instantly one-hit kill most players on Inferno, or even on Hell. Players without top quality gear and high hit points must learn the timing to avoid it with some sort of evasion skill, or suffer.
