Combat
This section describes how to fight against the Brute X-Spino.

General
The brute x-spino is arguably the hardest brute creature to fight the battle is like a more difficult version of the brute mammoth. it has a large AoE, high knock back, very high damage, about 230k health, high speed, and damage reduction on Alpha difficulty. a pack of 5 rexes have a low chance of survival because of its low speed and the brute x-spino's knock back but a pack of 10+ can attack from all directions. the allosaur bleed strategy also has a low chance of working as the brute x-spino is pretty quick.

Strategy
GAMMA

you can fight the brute x-spino with rexes on beta as you do increased damage. A single high level giga can do the trick but watch the rage meter. and the dinos at the end are not too much of a problem as they are far weaker and slower.

BETA

if you want to fight it with rexes, a pack of 5 or more is suggested. a good level ferox can be useful as it can throw boulders and be given hats. Another strategy is to use a animal to distract it while other attack from behind. A giga can be usd to take it out solo but there is a high chance of it raging. you also can ride a bloodstalker, cling to a tree, and mow it down with a high quality ranged weapon.

ALPHA

The alpha version should be treated like a boss level. A pack of 10+ rexes will do the trick but have a high chance of dying. a pack of gigas is highly recommended as they have very high damage. By doing other missions such as "A hop, a skip, and a jump away sometimes give magmasaur saddle blueprints with <300 armor, these can be very valuable in this battle. a tek hover skiff with many turrets placed on it can defeat it.

the bloodstalker strategy will use too much time.

Weaponry
ranged weapons can be used while your pack attacks it but NEVER attempt this mission on foot as it can kill you in one hit.

Dangers
the brute x-spino does about >700 on its quadrupedal stance and >900 on its bipedal stance and can attack very quickly this means it can kill survivors and tames very quickly. It also has on average 230k health so it can take a lot of punishment combined with the fact it has damage reduction on alpha. it has a gargantuan AoE.

it has very high speed and can outrun players on its bipedal stance.

Weakness
even the toughest brutes have weaknesses. its herculean size makes it very easy to hit and a shotgun can hit it from a distance.

It can be distracted easily and can be hit from behind while you pack attacks it

its accomplices at the end are mercifully easy to defeat.
