The Charger is an enemy that can perform quick charging attacks. Similar to the Strider, you can defeat it by targetting the Blaze Canister on its back, and even damage the horns to remove them.
You can override the Charger to mount it, giving you a way to travel and explore faster. The Charger also has a number of strong attacks that you can use, making fights against machines easier.
