Brute Major is an elevated rank for Brutes of the Covenant. These veteran Brutes are stronger and smarter than their younger counterparts and have been given the right to wear basic armor. This armor also makes them harder to kill.
Combat
These Brutes, are typically seen sporting Brute Spikers, Covenant Carbines and Brute Shots. They are usually seen commanding less experienced Brutes and they are more aggressive when berserking. It is best to try and kill them using a Carbine, Battle Rifle, Energy Sword, M6C Magnum, Sniper Rifle, or their own weapon: the Brute Shot, since they have more stamina then their counterparts and don't have shields. Like all Brutes, they are vulnerable to head shots and may be killed by assassination. This is especially useful when using the Arbiter's Active Camouflage, in Halo 2. It is wise to kill the Brute Major first in order to eliminate the enemy with the most potential to kill you.
Halo 3
The Brute Majors, in Halo 3, like the Jump Pack Brutes, are clad and ordained in blue power armor and purportedly between the ranks of Elite Minor and Major Domo. They have armor, that looks similar to a Brute Minors', despite a few differences, such as the presence of shoulder, knee pads, and bands on their thighs, which hold a Brute Spiker and blue, not crimson armor. The Plasma Pistol/Plasma Rifle are great for destroying the Major's armor. Once their armor has been taken down, a headshot from an M6G, Battle Rifle, Carbine, or Sniper rifle will be enough to take them down. An alternate strategy is meleeing them. However, they are extremely strong, especially on Legendary, so this can be risky. Killing a Major Brute will cause nearby Grunts to flee.
