They usually wield Brute weapons such as Spikers, Maulers, Brute Shots, and even Gravity Hammers, as well as more traditional Covenant weaponry and human armaments.

However, they do not use the hammer to great effect, they just use it to melee instead of using the primary explosive hit (though that may have been a consideration on Bungie's part). They are more powerful than the Human Form, but they are slower (bulkier) and can't jump as high. Since when a brute's armor is damaged far enough, it falls off leaving a stripped body. When a Flood infection form infects them, they have don't have shielding capabilities like the Elite form. A shotgun round or a few melees should do the trick with them.
