In ''Halo 3'', Brute power armor is generally inferior in strength to the shielding systems of Elites and SPARTANs, although this is compensated for by the Brute's natural physical resilience. A standard Brute's shielding is almost half as powerful as that of a [[Sangheili Minor]], collapsing after seven to nine assault rifle hits on the [[Heroic]] difficulty, compared to twelve assault rifle shots for a Minor Elite's shields. The shielding of a [[Jiralhanae Captain|Brute Captain]] or chieftain are only on par with an Elite Minor's shields, dropping after only twelve to fourteen assault rifle shots or several plasma rifle bolts. However, in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', Brute power armor is more than twice as resistant to projectile weapons than it was in ''Halo 3'', making Brutes noticeably more durable opponents when fought with human projectile weaponry. | In ''Halo 3'', Brute power armor is generally inferior in strength to the shielding systems of Elites and SPARTANs, although this is compensated for by the Brute's natural physical resilience.

In ''Halo: Reach'', only [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|Jiralhanae chieftains]] wear power armor.

It is more resilient than the armor worn by chieftains in ''Halo 3'' and ''Halo 3: ODST'', potentially requiring multiple assault rifle magazines to disable. This version of the power armor also cannot be permantently disabled and features regenerating shields. Though [[Jiralhanae Captain Major|Captain Majors]] are fully armored, they do not have shields. However, all ranks can use [[Armor Lock]]. | ||
In ''Halo Wars'', the [[Jiralhanae Army Commander]] and the Brutes under his command wear power armor. While the Army Commander is highly resistant to damage, the mechanics of his power armor are not depicted in-game. When Brutes are killed, their power armor leaks plasma but remains intact, unlike in ''Halo 3'' and ''Halo 3: ODST''. | In ''Halo Wars'', the [[Jiralhanae Army Commander]] and the Brutes under his command wear power armor.
