Most likely Dark Melee/Dark Armor... partially because it's something completely new to me, and partically because... well... none of your business 
.
Stone/Invul for pure boss killing badness. I tried EN as a primary, liked it, but then playing with the big mallets of stone.............. cant beat them you know. Well damage wise, attack rate and stun............ OK EN is better than stone, but I like stone. Also wanted a break from DM, cause my hero's still need time, stone/dm/en were the three primaries that caught my attention in the end, so maybe some day there'll be a EN one for me too. I picked invul after a tough decision, I so wanted to make DA work with stone but I love the stone noices, I cant put up with the sound on for DA so invul is it

Going for a defence based set Spad??! I'm never trusting defence again. *looks at his SR* Ever

i'll most likly go Dark/dark altho it seems tooo scrapperish to me....or dark/stone seems like a good new build dont know about the defences in stone tho may not suit a brute to well (my oppinion)
Think I go SS/Inv for the SMASH factor. Tried DM/DA before but I found it lacked a killer punch and shadow maul is depressing when it misses as you stand around doing nothing waiting for its animation to finish.
EM/DA here, I really don't seem to shake off my love for Dark Armor.
Will probably also make a fire/fire brute.

Yer - im also thinking of making a fire/fire, but not sure...
Since my main in COH is Inv/Stone I'm going to create an evil AU version of him... a Stone/Dark Brute.
fire/fire most likely. I enjoyed playing it in beta.
dark/energy for me.
don't like the fx for /dark - I want to be able to see my toon properly.
DM/DA here
Follows my Main in CoH, plus i know the powerset quite well
I'm not sure what I'm going for at the moment. I've tried Fire/Fire, en/en and dm/en in beta, but I might try something different for live.

Glutton for punishment I suppose. I just enjoy the challenge.

Probably Stone/Invuln, wanted to make a Stone/Fire but I saw the Fire figures now for tanks, and since Brutes get 75% of Tank's armour effectiveness...
I'm such a hussie for the 'better' build.
World of Jackcraft.
Being as boring as i usually i am, im being fire/fire.
Just a change from the usual, earth/energy 
With my first character, Gargantuman, I always wanted to take Superstrength as the primary, so now's my chance. As for secondary, I have no idea. I'll have to wait and see I think.
IN MEMORIUM OF GAYBABY
CRUELY TAKEN FROM THIS WORLD WHILE SO YOUNG
dm/ea seems like a cool concept to me, so will try that

I was going to be a Stone/Ice brute at first, but that got taken away. I thought about En but when I realised I couldn't have the def with the cool graphics I might as well have res instead.

ss/energy for me, brut E. force will wipe the floor with all of you.
I am the Blaster, I have filled the role of Tank, Controller and Defender
Sometimes all at once.
Union EU player! Pip pip, tally ho, top hats and tea etc etc
I'll be making ***/DA, propably SS or NRG primary.
My Brute? Super Strength / x
what doesthe x means? ..either Stone Armour (as thats a set i never passed 18 with on an old tanker..so its somewhat 'new' and shiney) or Dark armour.
For the life of me i cannot decide which 
@Inkwave ..(darn merge)
Fire/DA
Might change on a whim, but seems decent.
Gone for Energy/fire, mainly because havent used either before. seems good so far, but as there's 35 lvl's to go so we'll see
Hey all,
If your going to have a Brute in CoV, what powersets have you decided on?
Im going for Stone/Stone Brute, was pretty good in beta
Thanks,
