Knucklemaster is a boss in {{ALBW}}, who resides in the [[Skull Woods (A Link Between Worlds)|Skull Woods]], guarding [[Sage]] [[Seres]]'s painting. It appears as an organic hand encased in a metal gauntlet, with an eye in its palm. It replaces [[Mothula]] from {{ALttP}} as the boss of Skull Woods. Unlike most bosses in {{ALBW}}, it does not share many similarities with its Hyrulean counterpart, Mothula, other than the fact that they can both fly and seem to be organic.

The Knucklemaster's lair is located off the middle of a dark corridor at the bottom floor of the Skull Woods. It is fought in a room with many cracks on the floor. Beating it opens up a stairway leading outside, where Seres' painting is held.

It is actually possible to skip the fight against Knucklemaster via a glitch, as seen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NP-xlpWZgyY here]. If Link stands near the upper wall of the arena and uses the Tornado Rod at the same time Knucklemaster attempts to ram into him, it is possible to leave the arena and reach Seres's painting without fighting the boss. However, doing so will result in the [[Heart Container]] Knucklemaster yields to be unobtainable.

Characteristics

This is not only dangerous on its own, but it also destroys the fragile parts of the floor, making it harder to maneuver. After sustaining enough damage, Knucklemaster will change colors, get faster and attempt to squash Link more often, but the strategy to defeat it remains the same. Upon the monster's defeat, a passageway will be revealed, leading to Seres's Painting.
