Drops & Harvest Resources
Killing a Brute Magmasaur yields Hide, Raw Prime Meat, and Sulfur. The Hatchet harvests the most Hide, while the Pick yields the highest amounts of Raw Prime Meat and Sulfur.
| Resource |  Pick |  Hatchet |
|---|---|---|
| 40%~21~17 hits | 60%~32~13 hits | |
| 60%~24~17 hits | 40%~16~13 hits | |
| 3%~1~17 hits | 2%~1~13 hits |
Estimates based on game-extracted data (weights, quantities, harvest multipliers, damage type chains). Each harvest event independently rolls each resource - higher weight = higher drop chance. Actual yields vary with RNG.
Weight Reduction
The Brute Magmasaur reduces Metal by -75%, Metal Ingot by -75%, and Ambergris by -50%. Pair it with Tusoteuthis to maintain these reductions during flight.
Damage Resistances
The Brute Magmasaur takes +400% more damage from spike walls, making them highly effective for defense. It is completely resistant to fire projectiles and mining drill damage, reducing both to zero. Melee attacks with impact effects and small turret fire are also -50% less effective.
