Combat
This section describes how to fight against the Brute Malfunctioned Tek Giganotosaurus.

General
The Brute Malfunctioned Tek Giganotasaurus is encountered in the mission "Hunting by Moonlight." It acts as a regular Giganotasaurus by virtue of a sizeable health pool (~100,000-110,000 Health), high damage, and the gnashing ability which drains health by a percentage. In the last phase of the hunt it is supported by three Brute Malfunctioned Tek Rexes which almost double its own health and deal very high damage.

Strategy
As a player you should avoid melee range at all costs as it is likely to kill a player in one or two hits, though you may survive a few more against the gamma version. Due to the lunar biome possibly causing you and your tames to be knocked off the area you're fighting at, even with heavy tames such as Rexes, strategies are rather limited. One way to trivialize the fight would be to have various survivors hovering over the brute with Bloodstalkers by utilizing their ability to fall slowly and jump in the air and just pelt it from the air out of its reach with high-damage weaponry. Alternatively you can use high areas to your advantage to stay safe. However the alpha version of this fight may be much harder due to the damage reduction the Brute Giga and Rexes get alongside the shortened time limit. For reference, the Brute Rexes on alpha have an effective health EACH that surpasses the alpha Dragon and can also kill survivors in only one or two hits. Add in the fact that an unexpected meteor shower can ruin your day and you have a very difficult fight on your hands, perhaps the most difficult PvE content that has ever been added.

The Gamma and Beta versions are much more forgiving but are still not easy. You will need a lot of firepower to succeed and the Brute Giga should always be the first one killed.

Weaponry
If you plan to stay at range then use any high-damage weaponry such as the Pump-Action Shotgun, Compound Bow, Assault Rifle, and Tek Rifle. Creatures that can stand a chance against the Gamma and Beta (if supported) include Rexes and Giganotosaurus and even Allosaurus, if you are able to get one. It's advised to use cryopods (Not recommened in PvP) to effectively get tames from one location to another during the hunt, should you need to jump to other landmasses.

Dangers
It can overpower almost anything it can attack, especially the alpha difficulty variant. Alongside a respectable health pool and being supported by three Tek Rex allies, getting caught in its range is almost certain death.

Weakness
There are certain areas where you fight it in the hunt that it can't reach, allowing the players to freely fire away at it.
