=== Raider Summon ===
* Summons 4 raiders that have either swords or spears as weapons. Note that they will go towards the crystal if you are not near them.

* Hardened Iron Greatsword
** A slow but powerful weapon that deals 70 damage per hit, and has a 2s cooldown. Can not be upgraded.
==Tips and Tricks==
* Use full Iron Armor for Raider Brute as it has great defense. Also craft a Speed Coil to dodge Raider Brute and his minions.
* Best weapon to use for directly attacking Raider Brute is Goldfire Sword because it has great fire damage, almost bypassing Raider Brute’s resistance. It is also very effective for his minions.
* Fighting Raider Brute solo can be a bit tricky because his minions attempt to charge the crystal and not you, so you can try to put caltrops near the crystal to catch them, or you can hit the raiders as they're going for the crystal. Be careful with the long spear raiders, as they can easily wear down your health.
*Also, you can try to fight him on a thin row of platforms as 2 raiders will just fall into the void. This may make it a little harder to fight him as you can fall off yourself, but you won't have to deal with as many raiders.
*The spiked barricades around the island will damage you when touched. This can be avoided by either simply destroying them or maneuvering around them. Alternatively, you can bring Green Cubes or a Healer Cube along to heal the damage from the barricades.
*Furthermore, if you continue to struggle on the raiders spawned by the Raider Brute, you can try bringing a friend to defend the island, it is recommended they have a Goldfire or Frostfire Sword.
== Trivia ==
* Raider Brute is the only boss to be directly related to Raiders, an enemy that spawns in groups randomly.
* Along with Hammerdom, Raider Brute is the first and only boss to have a custom island.
**Further more, it is the only island to have natural structures that damage you.
* An upcoming miniboss, the Juggernaut Raider, is similar to Raider Brute both in appearance and in attacks, although Raider Brute doesn't have a shield and the Juggernaut Raider cannot spawn raiders.
