Anything with AoE damage.
Electric / Electric might be interesting. You get good AoE and you both have endurance drain... you might be able to drain mobs dry for extra defense. EBs will be a pain though.
A duo isn't going to run into huge mobs, so unless you plan to herd or go for end drain I'd go with something that has good single target damage as well as some AoEs. Dual Blades / WP or DB/SR are fun and have pretty good AoE while still having better single target damage than Electric Melee. There's also Fire/Fire... it's squishy for a Brute but it can handle two-man spawns, especially with some controls. (If you can afford expensive IOs it can handle a lot more, of course.)
If you are going to herd, go with the classics: SS/WP or SS/Fire.

Well. two things: as mind, his staple AoE controls are both interfered with by damage. Therefore, you kinda have a conundrum: either you leave them alone, gaining the benefit of the control but losing out on some potential fury from them attacking you, or you wake them all up and get fury from their attacks, but don't really end up getting much benefit from the controls. You could realistically go either way here: Have both of you go for single target damage and just accept that you won't be attacked very often, or go for mass AoE and just accept that the controls are mostly to avoid the alpha.
In the first case, you would want a good single target primary that builds fury well. Dark melee immediately comes to mind here, with the very quick first two attacks, and the good single target chain. Possibly pair it with shield defense to get a damage boost from all the statues surrounding you? Other secondaries could work just as well, though. Just avoid anything with a damage aura. Aggro control would be less important in this case.
In the second, you want as much AoE as possible, and a good aggro holding secondary to keep them on you once you wake them up (read: anything but willpower and energy aura).
My personal preference would be a variant of the first: let the brute take the alpha and give him a few seconds for the mobs to clump up, then hit the sleep/fear and go to town with the single target attacks. This gives him some bonus fury and lets the mobs clump to fuel soul drain/AAO/etc type abilities, but still gets some benefit from the AoE controls. Any decent secondary should let the brute take an alpha considering the dom can shut off the enemies for the rest of the fight. Dark melee would give sustainability with dark consumption and siphon life so that you never have to stop, as well as good, quick, fury-building single target damage.
With this combo, tactics are going to be as important as builds - you must manage your control and damage use to get as much out of the controls as possible without denying the brute the chance to build fury.

This is what it means to be a tank!
Well, a friend of mine and I are going to start duoing old school, for reasons I am not going to get into (Cough cough cough AE)...So...
Anyway, he is playing a Mind/Electric Dom. My question is, what would team well with it?
I dont want to reroll my Dm/Sr as he is almost 40. So, what else would duo well with that type of Dom?
Thank you in advance
I hate all this terrorist business. I used to love the days when you could look at an unattended bag on a train or bus and think to yourself.... I'm going to take that.
