Epona is very versatile. She may be a bit awkward to fight bosses with, but it is not too bad. Upon Epona's back, Link can pull her places with the [[Hookshot]], shoot his [[Bow]] and [[Arrow]]s, throw his [[Boomerang]], and use [[Bomb]]s. The attack chains allow Link and Epona to fight in tandem. For example, one of the combo chains is for Epona to kick enemies up into the air while Link shoots them three times with his Bow and Arrows. For the victory pose, Link plays the [[Ocarina of Time]] to call his precious steed. They then ride off into the distance.

Epona has a meter containing five Carrots; Link can press {{HW Button|strong}} after any of his Combo Attacks to expend a Carrot and perform a brief, forward charge - this is useful for cancelling attacks and positioning Link out of danger. Carrots regenerate over time.
