"Die? Didn't you know? Spartans never die." - Kurt-051's last words.

These are the changes to the Jiralhanae from Halo 3 to ODST in gameplay:

*Their energy shield now glows the same way as a Spartan or Sangheili (Elite) when they take damage and the shield strength is doubled.

(Note: This is the most major change.)

*They dodge grenades much more often. Around 90% of the time.

(Note: Activating the Tough Luck skull will make it even worse.)

*They now charge at you even while they are not in beserk mode.

*Thier AI is improved. So is thier aim.

*Thier melee strength is increased. Anyone who played ODST on Normal or higher knows that challenging a Brute on a melee fight is suicide.

EMP Kill, or jump over them and Ninja Assasinate.

Those are probably the most useful things I use against them.

You can also Spray them until shields go down and then Headshot.

You just have to know how to approach each enemy. Brutes with Bruteshots, I usually keep my distance unless the area I'm in requires Close Quarters Combat, then I assasinate. Plasma Grenade are really helpful if there close enough to stick, but too dangerous to try and beat down or something like that.

But EMP kills are probably the best thing you got.
