You could go Dark and do a Stygian theme with INV's dark color.
I think my next might be fire/inv.

I made a em/inv brute and it is a blast. I will say though there are times I had a area attack to use. I never picked up whirling hands and have not got to the point of picking a patron. I have run it on a ITF and I know there are sets that can do it faster but was fun taking out red boss in 2 hits.
I never played the set before they changed it I do feel it attacks kindy slow could have swore it use to be faster. There have been times I wondered if I should have just went stone melee given it feels I am attacking so slow.
Mace is a fun set to I guess I would say if you want to stun things I would go mace over energy for me anyway. PLus you can have a hammer with a gaint eye on it come on that brings a new menaing to haveing your eye on someone 
Stone melee is the smashiest set in game bar none, awesome fun
Seconded on Stone Melee. It's loud, shaky and squishes mobs dead.

WARNING: I bold names.
stone melee is also rough on the endurance, but easy on the fury generation due to pretty much all of the attacks being fast animating (i think you actually LOSE fury if you pop tremor)
Which is why it's a good thing that not many people take Tremor.
I still believe that if Tremor got made more like Foot Stomp, no one would really play SS ever again. :P

I have Tremor on my stone/stone. I only use it once my fury is over 50%. Of course when you have the aggro cap around you you don't have to worry about fury anyway.
Dark/Invuln is actually a really good combo. Hard to kill and tough as nails. The long recharge aoe's in dark actually work for holding aggro. Match them up with some patron aoe and you have a fully functional beast.
Thanks for the help so far, but how is Stone and Fire for soloing? I dont care if theyre not the best, but i also dont want to be gimped
I have never used fire but I do really well solo with my Stone/elec brute. I have no damage enhancers in my attacks just endranc reducers and acc but once you have your fury up minions go down in one hit and most boss I can keep flopping like a fish out of water.
They both do well soloing and teamed. I have taken both to 50.
Stone is awesome with Fault, great mitigation.
Fire is probably the best ST damage set of all and also has pretty good AoE in FSC
on the hit 50 reroll thing, hope your not doing this due to the older not up with the new changes CoX crowd that still likes to say there is no end game. If you stop at 50 you have not reach the top.. lvl progression stops at 50. but you keep improving with sets and eventually the uber purple sets. Anmd the diff 'tween a "finished" 50 with purple sets and a I quit him to make new one is greater then just a lvl or 2.. the setted one will out perform the non in everyway at all lvls of play.
That bein said..
Fire an stone are great solo. I love the smashy shakey stone, but fire is also.. well wow.. lotsa dam at low end cost.. quick like.. rooms dying faster then you can say "welcome to the B-B-Q" style quick.

oh I forgot, wanted to say if you went stone WP might be a good choice as it makes the high end of stone no biggie.

Ditto except mine has Power sink so I can afford Damage enhancers. I have Air Sup on auto here. Stun the boss bounce the LT and Mallet minions. Repeat.

Believe me on Victory red-side, theres not much you can do, i dont think ive gotten a Pug in like 2 months, luckily i have a good coal or i would move to different servers
Anywho: after seeing that fire does the most ST damage i think im gonna roll one of those but thanks for all the input guys
Hiya, i just recently rolled a ss/shield brute and am loving it.
, so take that into consideration
But he's starting to get close to fifty, and when that happens i was thinking about making another brute and invul seems interesting to me, but i cant decide on a primary. Im open to any suggestions except SS (i just got one to fifty and i want something new)
* I also dont have alot of spare inf, seeing as i just rolled a ss/shield
