Wild Stats Level-up
Type in values of a wild creature to see on which stats it's emphasized. Green values on a high-level creature are very good for breeding. If you have already tamed your creature you can try to recover the breeding stats with an external tool.[1]
The stat-calculator does not work in the mobile-view, see here for alternatives: Apps
Note that after the creature is tamed it gets bonuses on some stats depending on the taming effectiveness. This makes it hard to retrieve the levels on a tamed creature, so this tool is only for wild ones, but gives a first impression, how well the stats are distributed.
Combat[]
This section describes how to fight against the Brute X-Rex.
General[]
The Brute X-Rex appears in the mission "Kingslayer" in the East Volcano Biome. It is basically a larger X-Rex in every aspect. It has an average of 70-80k health which is fairly low for Brute standards; this is because the Brute X-Rex is only level 300 (official difficulty) when encountered as opposed to level 1000. It is arguably one of the easier hunt missions in the game.
In the last part of the hunt it is supported by 5 Raptors. They do not appear to use their pounce ability.
Strategy[]
The pathways in which you fight the Brute X-Rex do not leave much room for maneuvering around so your best approach is to go brute force against brute force. Bring your own Rexes or strong Allosaurus pack and the fight should be a relative breeze. Bringing smaller creatures to this fight isn't advised since the Brute X-Rex's roar can stun them for a moment if they're a lower level than the X-Rex itself.
Gigas are also a good choice in creature to use with one being able to complete all three difficulties if leveled properly and has a good saddle.
Using a Bloodstalker to hang from a high ledge while shooting with a high quality Tek Phase Pistol is a viable strategy. Beware that the Tek Pistol has a short range so it will require you to get closer to the brute to damage it. A similar but much more risky strategy will be to use an Argentavis with Grappling Hooks if you are doing the mission solo, have no bloodstalker, or there is nothing close enough to hang from.(If more than one person is available for the mission, ignore the following steps and just have one person fly while the other shoots from the Agrentavis.) Once you find the Brute fly above it and jump off the Argy and in quick succession grapple yourself to the bird and hang just out of reach of the Rex to keep it from moving too much and shoot.Repeat this until the mission completes and bring lots of Element. Because the Brute X-Rex will be accompanied by 5 Raptors at the end of the mission try to target specific gendered Raptors to remove the mate boost and deal more damage. An example is if there are three females and two male Raptors you should target the males first to remove the mate boost and vice versa.
Weaponry[]
Creature-wise, your standard war creatures such as Rexes and Allos remain a strong choice. If you have access, an imprinted Giganotasaurus will make quick work of gamma and beta versions, and with enough support, can also handle the alpha variant.
If you're crazy enough to be on foot for this mission, your standard fabricated weapons are solid choices as going up close and personal is not advised. The Tek Rifle can help to keep the Raptor minions at bay in the last part of the fight.
Dangers[]
The Brute X-Rex is still a Rex so its inherent dangers apply; its roar can temporarily stun smaller creatures that are a lower level than it. It also still deals a good amount of damage which can kill survivors on foot with utmost haste. Lastly, its 5 Raptor minions can cause problems or get in the way of mobility which can either leave Rexes struggling to attack back or outright kill smaller creatures themselves.
Weakness[]
For Brute standards its health pool is rather low which makes overpowering it a bit easier than the other hunt missions. Also anything that can stay out of its melee range can't be hurt but the general areas where it's hunted can make this difficult to achieve.
Just like their regular counterpart, they do take Allosaurus's bleed debuff effect, making completing Alpha a lot easier.
