If the [[brute]] goes berserk, dodge the physical attacks and finish them off with a melee or headshot. On higher difficulties, it is advisable to use [[grenades]], as they will blow their cover, and they can be quickly finished off by an automatic weapon. Watch for enemy fire and destroy any [[radar jammer]]s you see deployed on the ground. Using the [[power drain]] will also strip their armor off, resulting in them being visible and having almost no shields. If the Stalker is standing on a glass floor, its feet should be visible. It is also effective to use a Spiker or Needler as the spikes are visible when stuck in the Brute. Defeating them is the easiest way to get incendiary grenades. | If the [[brute]] goes berserk, dodge the physical attacks and finish them off with a melee or headshot.

In ODST, fighting Stalkers is much more straightforward. You are able to see them as yellow outlines in VISR mode, however, the outline color matches that of the terrain outlines, so they can theoretically still blend in if you don't watch yourself. Like all Brutes in ''ODST'', they also sport full energy shielding that can withstand twice as much damage from projectile weaponry compared with those in ''Halo 3''. Besides these differences, it's mostly the same. One last thing is that they don't seem to know that you can see them, they may stand out in the open thinking that their camouflage prevents you from seeing them. In reality, it just makes them a big target. | In ''ODST'', fighting Stalkers is much more straightforward.
