On Legendary they'll be able to take a full clip of Battle Rifle ammo. You'll have to struggle them to the ground and then force a frag grenade into their gear and slam them on the floor. When that grenade goes boom the Brute will be dead. Read First Strike and you'll see what I mean.

I hope they are near impossible. Hunters were cool in Halo but I hated that they had that one sweet spot b/c once you learned this the hunters were no more difficult than a lone grunt.

Scary!! E-blam!-. Theyll be very strong, especially on Legendary, but atleast itll add more of a challenge to the game.

One that was easy. Two they had God mode on. Three they were using Grunt AI for that Brute.

I don't think they will be very tough I hear that it will only take a few melee attacks to the head and they are fini but that was just part of the demo so they might toughen them up in the actual game or they might have different levels of toughness like the elites

i think they will be BIG elites but with no shields. a decent headshot will kill them (remember how small their heads are though). I also think the Hunters are gonna be beefed up a bit so they will still be the biggest baddies. Note we haven't seen any information or pictures with hunters in them for halo 2 yet.

I like the idea of having to empty a full clip into a brute's belly just to kill it. Stickin a few plasmas on it will prolly be the best strategy though...or sniping...or it will be immune to snipe!! that would make it a tough dude!

I'm sure they will be much tougher than u people think. U guys must not have read the books. And the halo2 e3 video where mc combo meleed a brute. The brute was grunted up that means the brute was just interacting and not really attacking so that mc could pull his combo off. They will be the hardest force to reckon with. And if u get near one then I suggest u go to the concept art page and look whats on the bottom of his gun before u try to melee the crap out of him (its a big ass blade connected to the bottom of his gun).
