So I'm playing a KM/SR brute, and I just hit lvl 10.

I'm noticing I seem pretty damn squishy for a brute, and I get in trouble fighting enemies one level above me.

Is there a better setup for Kinetic Melee brutes? Which secondary works best for them?

I havent played CoH/CoV in over a year so I don't know all the changes that were made, other than the new power types and they made fitness something everyone gets.
