Rebonack is a boss from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. He is a blue Iron Knuckle mounted on a mechanical horse. He is first encountered as the boss of the Island Palace, later encountered twice as a sub-boss in the Hidden Palace, where he guards the Cross.

[edit] Battle

Rebonack as he appears in-game

While mounted on his horse, Rebonack retreats off screen, then charges at Link. Link must jump the charge and hit Rebonack with a Downward Thrust. After taking sufficient damage, his horse will run away and Rebonack will fight Link as a standard Blue Iron Knuckle.

Rebonack can be difficult to fight due to his attack pattern. Blue Iron Knuckles back away from Link as he attacks, and can be pinned against a wall or backed into a pit. Rebonack, however, can back off the screen where Link cannot follow him, and can even keep shooting his sword at Link while doing so. This requires Link to bait him to the middle of the room repeatedly.
