Rebonack is a mounted knight boss found in the Maze Island Palace. He rides a horse and charges across the screen, attempting to trample Link. He also throws a spear. The key to defeating Rebonack is to use the Jump spell to leap over his charges and strike him from behind or above. The Downward Thrust is incredibly effective here, allowing you to hit him as you jump over. When he throws his spear, you can either block it with your shield or jump over it. After taking enough damage, he will dismount his horse and fight on foot, similar to an Iron Knuckle. At this point, use the same strategies as you would for an Iron Knuckle: wait for openings or use the Downward Thrust. The Shield spell is useful throughout the fight. Defeating Rebonack earns you the fourth crystal.
