Returning as the main foes, though without supplanting the Elites, Brutes sport somewhat of a combination of their combat doctrine from the previous games.

All Brutes wear [[Banished armor]], in colors denoting their ranks. As the ranks increase, so does the amount of armor the Brute is covered with, in terms of both metal plates and energy shields. Metal plating will protect the brute from physical damage, and will fall off as it sustains hits. All Brutes have a head protection that must be shot off before scoring headshots. Those with shields are protected them from assassinations until depleted, and are always active, shown with a notable sheen over their body (unlike Elite and Grunt shields, that are kept inactive until they enter combat but only flare when shot or recharging).

Brutes have an immense variety in their arsenal, with almost every single weapon being utilized across their ranks in the game. Knowing what each rank looks like and what weapon it uses is fundamental to survival. On top of this, Brutes have gained the ability to pick up weapons from the battlefield. Beware of killing weak enemies with powerful weapons near a Brute: he will pick them up and become a much bigger threat. Low rank Brutes can still be a considerable nuisance at range, as their [[Ukala Workshop Mangler|Mangler]]s can shoot far, with good precision, and pack a punch.
