Brute Mammoth

The Brute Mammoth is a Brute Creature in 's Expansion Pack Genesis: Part 1.

Behavior
The brute mammoth does not attack unless if provoked. it spawns when a player tracks enough tracks in the mission "Mammoths On Parade". at the end it appears on a ledge with three other mammoths level 625. also do not underestimate the brute mammoth's speed as it can outrun a Spinosaur on its quadrupedal stance.

Appearance
Brute Mammoths have white tusks and near-black fur.

Combat
This section describes how to fight against the Brute Mammoth.

General
the brute mammoth stats and melee damage are pretty similar to the brute yutyrannus but it has a large AoE on its attacks. This means a pack of well-bred Rexes are in more danger of getting killed or injured than most brutes. in beta or alpha difficulty it can land near to a thousand melee has 230k to 270k health combined with a large AoE it can result in the loss of many tames if you're not careful or prepared enough. A spino sounds like a good idea since it has great knock back but, like all brute creatures it is resistant to knock back.

Strategy
the battle is similar to a boss battle. On beta a very well-bred giga with a good saddle can take it out. if you don't have a giga a pack Rexes or spinos with high melee damage is a good idea. if you are on a mount ex. spino etc you should move slowly back whilst attacking as the ground-pound ability does more damage if you are closer. On Alpha a pack of gigas is highly suggested as you do about 80% less damage.

another strategy is to take a high level ferox cling to a wall and throw boulders. The mammoth will not leave allowing a easy kill.

a third strategy is to have a any ranged weapon (weapons like a sword's,pike's or tek claw's reach is too small) and a Bloodstalker. Hook on to a wall with the bloodstalker and mow it down. It is similar to the Ferox strategy but the player will hit it instead.

Weaponry
ranged weapons are recommended as a melee can get you killed very quickly. the shotgun can hit it as it is obscenely large. you can be a hit and run by putting enough points into speed but that will make you have less points for others.

Dangers
it has very high attack and can kill you and your tames with ease. Its has very high health, 33% more than a gamma megapithecus, so it can take a lot of punishment. it has a huge AoE and does more damage when you're closer to it so it can easily fight a pack at once. it is also pretty fast.

Weakness
since the brute mammoth is a gargantuan size it can be hit easily.

like a rock elemental, just stares at a target which is out of reach,

Notes/Trivia

 * Do not the underestimate the brute mammoth as it is faster than it looks.
 * at the end if the mammoth pack is attacked they will converge on the player but, the brute mammoth will ignore you.
