A Punisher as seen in-game

Punishers are found in Westmarch in Act V of Diablo III. Later on, they are replaced by Executioners, an empowered variant with similar abilities.

Punishers are slow but tough, and possess a very dangerous Stunning attack that can cause Knockback. From medium distance, they can also jump down at their victims, stunning everything in a radius of effect. Multiple Punishers, if encountered without precaution or if accompanied by other Reapers, can continuously keep the player stunlocked, making a character an easy prey. Punishers themselves are immune to Knockback.

After the player leaves Westmarch, they are no longer encountered.
