Overview
Brutes live to fight, and as a Brute, you will revel in hand-to-hand combat. With strong offensive power sets designed to inflict pain and impressive defenses to take it, you're the best there is in a straight melee fight. Protracted battles only make you mad, and the madder you get, the more damaging your attacks become. You do lack ranged attacks, which could leave you vulnerable to hit-and-run tactics without allies to cover you.
Alignment: Villain
The Brute's power sets are:

- Brutes received Electric Melee and Electric Armor when they were added to the game in Issue 7.
- Brutes received Dual Blades and Willpower when they were added to the game in Issue 11.
- Battle Axe, War Mace, and Super Reflexes were proliferated to Brutes in Issue 12.
