Assault Rider

The Assault Rider is a Heartless from Kingdom Hearts II. It appears primarily in The Land of Dragons. They have a centaur-like structure, and wield a large spear as their weapon. Getting close in can really take a chunk out of Sora and friends' HP, so long-range magic is less dangerous. Although they have powerful attacks, they won't attack unless they are in range at the beginning of the battle or are provoked. These Heartless get especially fast when their HP gets low!

Journal Entry
Avoid getting hit with its spear by using the well-guarded Jump attack to defeat it.

''When HP gets low, its attacks begin to get bold. Use big attacks to defeat it before it uses its explosive attack.''
