I don’t play doom, mostly because I don’t really like the creatures. But the leaders of the brutes, which one do you mean? Do you mean Tartarus or the chieftains? Well, it doesn’t matter that much but they are strong. The halo 3 brutes are heavily nerfed, because when I was playing halo 2 (which I completed) my duel plasma rifles would overheat atleast once, and then I finished the brute quickly, and keep in mind I’m hitting most of my shots. Though, brute shot is good if your going to melee them, or if your going to melee anything in general. The halo three brutes are noticeably stronger than elites, but brutes are way more predictable and easier to kill. The chieftains aren’t even that strong either, they have a bit less hp but they aren’t too hard. If your wondering about the difficulty, I play on normal.
