Rakanishu is a Super Unique Carver found in the Stony Field next to the Cairn Stones that activate the portal to Tristram during the Search for Cain quest.

Bonuses:

When attacking Rakanishu, melee heroes should be cautious of his Lightning Enchanted status, which causes Charged Bolts to emanate from him when struck. Rapid attacks on Rakanishu will result in an equally rapid release of charged bolts, which are especially deadly on higher difficulty levels. Rakanishu is the first of the Lightning Enchanted bosses in Diablo II, but enemies with this status appear often enough to make lightning resistance necesary.

In Normal difficulty, the Lightning damage done is 3-6. This increased to 21-33 in Nightmare and 53-81 in Hell. In addition, his Attack 1 has Cold Damage in Nightmare and Hell. In Nightmare there is a 10% chance of adding 4-6 cold damage with a chill of six seconds and in Hell there is a 20% chance of adding 12-16 Cold damage with an eight second chill.

He will appear with eight Minions in Normal, nine Minions in Nightmare and ten Minions in Hell.
