Maturation has three phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~222 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~15h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~19h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Brute X-Raptor gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. You'll be asked to cuddle, walk, or feed specific kibble at regular intervals during maturation.

Breeding the Brute X-Raptor produces fertilized eggs that require careful temperature control. Incubation temperature must stay between 20°C and 28°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 1 hour and 59 minutes.

After hatching or birth, the baby Brute X-Raptor matures over a lengthy period, reaching adulthood in about 1 day and 13 hours at 1x maturation. The most labor-intensive part is the baby phase (0–10% maturation) when it can't use a Feeding Trough yet.

Offspring inherit parental stats and have a small chance to mutate, gaining +2 levels in a random stat. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.

Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Brute X-Raptor babies through all three growth stages. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~222 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.

The multiplier feature helps plan large-scale Brute X-Raptor raises by totaling food across all babies. Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.

Found throughout the ARKs, the Brute X-Raptor is a carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended.

With 100% base Melee Damage, the Brute X-Raptor has solid damage output. The Brute X-Raptor has 820 base Health - solidly tanky. Stamina sits at 250 base, providing moderate endurance. Weight capacity starts at 280, giving it a solid weight pool.

The Brute X-Raptor is a wild creature that cannot be tamed through conventional methods. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 20°C and 28°C. Defeating one in the wild grants 6 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.23 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
