Last week I created a post about the My Brute glitch that let’s you fight yourself and now I have another pretty nifty My Brute trick. Make your My Brute stand out by making him/her completely black!

Creating a black My Brute
If you already have a My Brute created unfortunately you cannot change it’s color so if you want to try this you will have to create a new My Brute. Click here to get started (links opens in a new window). Please note that you will only be able to complete this tutorial if you are using Firefox because you are required to download and install a plugin that is not available for Internet Explorer. Click here to download Firefox if you do not have it already.

Tamper Data plugin
In order for us to be able to change some of the settings of the color of your My Brute you will need to download the Tamper Data Firefox Plugin. This plugin is free and very easy to install. Once you install it you have to restart your Firefox. Once it’s restarted move on to the next step.

Create Your Black Character
Okay, so you have the Tamper Data plugin installed and the create a My Brute page up. Type in the name you would like for your new character, but do not click VALIDATE.

Earlier today my My Brute moved up in rankings from “Desert Batterer” to “Sticking Plaster Ripper” and I thought it would give me the perfect opportunity to explain how the My Brute rankings work.

My Brute ranks show up as an image or badge on your brute’s cellule. For example, when my brute moved up today this badge was added to my cellule:

These ranks are based off of how well you do in the My Brute tournament. The longer you last in the tournament the higher up your rank will be. All brutes start off ranked as Padawan and the highest you can get is Brutal Legend, which is given to you when you win the tournament.

The 12 My Brute Ranks

Padawan
As mentioned above, every My Brute starts off at the Padawan rank. To be given it you need to win in the 04h – 10h of the tournament.

Desert Batterer
To reach the Desert Batterer rank you need to the final 1024 or 11h of the tournament.

Sticking Plaster Ripper
The funny named My Brute ranks begin…
You are required to reach the final 512 or 12h.

Richter Thumper
You must reach final 256 or 13h. This and the above 3 ranks are considered by some Beginner Ranks.

Today I received a nice e-mail from a person named Dannae asking me a few very good My Brute questions. The two things she was concerned about were that her My Brute has been deleted and now she couldn’t create a password for her new one. Well, these questions have come up several times in the comments (we have received over 100 comments now already on this blog) and I thought I would just go ahead and answer them for her and the rest of you right now. If you still have any questions post them in the comments below

My My Brute was deleted?
When you first create your My Brute character you are given the chance to create a password. By creating this password you are making sure that this new MyBrute character is yours and only yours to be played with. If you do not create a password for your My Brute after a certain amount of time it is deleted by the MyBrute.com servers. To stop this from happening be sure to Protect Your Brute and create a password for it.

Once a password has been created for your My Brute there is no way to delete it from the site.

Can’t create a password?
You may have noticed that after playing with your My Brute for awhile that the ability to create a password for it is no longer available. Read more »

I am going to do a series of posts of the next week or so and cover all of 26 My Brute weapons. You acquire new weapons as you level up and it is important to know what exactly these weapons can do.

Weapons are randomly assigned to you and randomly used in fights, but once you get one you will always have it and can always use it unless:

• You throw the weapon at your enemy
• An enemy brute knocks the weapon out of your hands.
• You throw it away to use a different weapon.

No matter what the case above, the weapon will always be available to you in the next fight.

The first set of weapons I want to cover are:

• Lance
• Baton
• Trident
• Sword
• Halberd
• Flail

As I mentioned in my post on how to create a My Brute clan, there is no minimum requirement your MyBrute must meet in order to join a clan. So, why not join one? Adding yourself to a “My Brute team” so to speak is a great way to get a little extra fun out of the game. It also adds another competitive edge to the game because now you can compared yourself to how your clan mates are doing.

Join a random clan
If you do not know anyone who has a clan or want to see what clans are available to join simply click the JOIN CLAN button at the top right of your cellule page. You will be taken to a page that has some of many clans in My Brute.

You are also welcome to look for a good clan to join below in the comments of this post.

Join our clan
We encourage you to join our clan if you are looking for a good community based clan. You can join our clan on MyBrute.com at this link.

There are a few known glitches that exist on My Brute, but this one is probably one of my favorites. You can fight yourself! For some reason My Brute has not fixed this glitch and I have to believe that by now they know about it, but here is how you can do it.

How to fight yourself on My Brute
First off, you must have at least 1 fight available for the day in the Arena. You will earn experience for this fight, but how much (1 or 2 XP) is pretty random. To fight yourself simply go to:

Example: http://stickycarrots.mybrute.com/vs/stickycarrots

My Brute skills (also known as specialties) are special abilities that your brute can earn as you level up. These skills are important and dramatically increase your brute’s chances of winning a fight. It is believed that these skills even become more important than weapons and you get to the higher levels (past 20). Like almost everything else on My Brute, these skills are randomly given and so far it is believe that no brute has ever gotten all of them.

We have compiled a list of all of the skills and their icons so you can find out what each one does and what it looks like. Your brute’s skills can be found on the left side your cellule page under your weapons and will look something like this:

Skills/Specialties
This list includes all 28 skills your brute can acquire and is listed based on the image above from left to the right and from the top down.

Herculean Strength
With your strength, you are capable of moving mountains! But that moment has not yet come, you have an enemy to destroy.

Adds 5-20 Strength points

Feline Agility
You haven’t even got a ball of string to pass the time with, but you can always thump the Brute you have opposite you.

Adds 5-20 Agility points

Bolt of Lightening
You hit faster than your shadow and bite faster than your enemy.

Adds 5-20 Speed points

If you purchased the My Brute iPhone application you probably noticed that right away (before you even create your first My Brute character) you are asked if you have a Master. If you just purchased the game because you heard about it from our post with screenshots or because you play the online version you might not have a Master or a Master code. These codes basically make you a pupil of the person who’s code you use and you join their dojo. The big difference between the online version and the iPhone My Brute game is that if you put in someone’s master code and join their dojo you get a few nice bonuses!

Getting a My Brute Master Code
It is very easy to find a master code so you can join someone’s dojo. I am encouraging everyone to post their master code below in the comments to help them get more pupils (you), but I will list a few myself that I have found here and there.

Where can I enter the code?
You can enter one My Brute master code for all of your brutes. Simply choose a brute to play with. Once you are at their main page, click through the icons until you find a page that looks like the image below:

There are three different types of pets on My Brute. They are the dog, wolf (sometimes called panther), and bear. It has never been verified by MyBrute.com how exactly it is decided that you get these pets, but there are a lot of different theories. For example, some people say if your Master has a pet then you are more likely to get one. Honestly, I think it is 100% random.

Although it is unclear how you get the pet, there is a lot of information on each pet and how they can contribute to your My Brute’s success!

Dog

Health Points: 15
Strength: 5
Agility: 5
Speed: 20

The dog is the most common My Brute pet. One brute can have up to three dogs and once you have a dog it will automatically join you in all of your fights. When/if you get your dog your brute’s health points will drop by 10. However, as you can see your dog has 15 HP so you are technically gaining 5 total.

Wolf

Health Points: 30
Strength: 10
Agility: 10
Speed: 10

The wolf is a rare, strong, and fast pet. If you get one you should be very excited, but at the same time you should know that now you have no chance of getting a bear. Once you have a wolf you cannot get a bear. However, you can still get a dog. Unlike the dog, you can only get one wolf.

When/if you get a wolf your brute’s Hit Points will be reduced by 23, however, the wolf has 30 HP to make up for it.

Since my post about fighting brutes with a lower level then you I have had several people ask me other ways you can increase your chances of winning a fight. It is not always easy to find a brute with a level or two lower than you, so what can you do to win a fight against a brute within your level?

Look over your opponents fight history before you fight!
When searching for an opponent in the My Brute Arena you are able to see that user’s name and view that brute’s cell (cellule).

The image above is of my current arena. I can see my opponents stats before I choose which one to fight. I can also see my brute’s stats on the left. It is easy to see that I have many more hit points than the opponent listed in the top row on the right. So, I click on his name (chiiiiiiiiiii) and I am taken to his My Brute challenge page:
