this is what i was referring to
"Fixed secondary damage effect of ‘Split Man’ skill not benefiting from some perks and traits."
as i understand it, it makes Brute now properly interact with Split Man

It does not. The fix to split man was to work with the "DamageMult" part of the damage formula which includes things like Frenzy, Executioner, Mushrooms, injuries, Dazed, Tiny, Huge, Drunk, etc.

Brute modifies the headshot multiplier of the damage formula. The secondary hit of Split Man does not use the headshot multiplier even if it is hitting the head, and therefore gains no benefit from Brute. This wasn't changed.

Your link is not working...

Regradless a huge brute is a good combo in my opinion... if you have the stat's to back it up... so without being able to see the linked guy I would say he sounds good lol....
