Overview
The Brute Megaloceros is a large herbivore with a unique weight reduction ability. It can be airlifted by Argentavis, Karkinos, Quetzal, or Tusoteuthis for rapid deployment across the map. This makes it ideal for mobile base operations where quick transport of resources is essential.
It does not gather resources while ridden but excels in logistical support due to its carry compatibility and structural damage capability.
