Only thing I can think of really is someone who can heal and MMs 
. Mainly because they keep agro off you =). Teaming with other brutes is nice too.
So I geuss, anyone who keeps agro off you and/or can heal. MM's who can heal and have the leadership pool 
. I know we can take damage the best but still in a group situation if others ain't sharing the agro I think we'd go down fast :/ (though I'm only lvl 17 so I;ve not seen much of a brutes tanking ability yet)
In beta my brute teamed with a coruptor and it went well, I think it was a kin one. The heal centres around the foe so the brute is usually in the AoE, the foes are still hitting the brute and anyone that the brute doesn't one hit can be taken down by scourge (dont bother fininshing oponents just wound them badly and move on, let the corruptor have the glory for the kills)

Rad/Dark Corruptor or Dark/Rad which ever way it goes round
Things not you through acc debuffs still builds rage, reduced DEF and of course accelerate metabolism.
Teamed Dr. Nocturnal (aka Empath) better end recovery and faster attacks through AM taking less damage because of debuffs. Made life almost too easy!
Mastermind with Dark or Forcefields secondary or a Corruptor.
Hmmm hadn't thought of Rad, should have really, rad or kin corruptor then, Kin for the boosts on you and the decent level of healing/damage gain and rad for the extra layer of saftey, and effectively giving your def and res through reducing acc and dam.

mm that heal are cool , unless like i had on the cape diablo s f , the git wont come ne where near the battle zone and expect u to run to him.
as 4 the AT i think its more of the person playing the AT.
sometimes the banter just rolls of the chat bar, which is great and i enjoy that.
other times u can managed to keep the pace fast an furious great i enjoy that.
but then u get into a group within half an hour u wanna go to sleep, 4 whatever reason its just not working.
so i go 4 the pppl rather than a AT , if the ppl are fun the games fun . the rest takes care of it self
I try to avoid teaming with a group with two or MM in. The henchmen get all over the place - can be a real pain trying to build up some aggro when a mob of zombies blunder in front of me, pushing me away from my punch bag
Any /Rad corruptor is perfect

Cos they put those big green circles round who they want you to attack first. And they make you SMASH harder.
i teamed with an assault rifel/kenetics corruptor once, took out large groups in a few seconds. great fun.

[/ QUOTE ]Kinetics corryptor, speed boost+fulcrum shift are VERY nice for brutes (brute damage cap is 850% so it's hard to cap even with fulcrum)

Just to make sure no one reads this wrong... The big green circles should be attacked only after anything nearby is dead. Else you annoy the nice radiation corruptor.
I have Captain Solaris II (EM/Fire Brute)teamed up with Blizz's Meltdown a Rad/Rad Corrupter.
Still only low lvl, however from the times we have teamed together its worked pretty well, but that's probably because she know's how to play a bit. ^_^

Kinetics doesn't doo accuracy debuff - it debuffs speed. I look forward to teaming with a /kin corruptor. My CoH main is Kin so i have a damn fine idea what to expect, and I expect sweetness with a great deal of extra smash!
I have to agree with MaXimillion. In Beta, I rolled a Brute .... and the first thing I did on release was roll a /kinetics, on the basis that they are going to be very popular. Melee based heal, siphon power, speed boost ... fulcrum shift at the end.

Corruptors ftw
Especially those with end or recharge buffs. I also like /FF or /Dark Masterminds as my Secondary is Fire. It can be harder to build a decent fury bar with lots of pets running about however. A skilled Dominator tends to bring this problem with them too.
i like teaming with other brutes the most having a team of 2 or 3 brutes is ultra fun ultra fast and you have little chance of dieing (3 way damage sharing plus Brutes can generally heal themselfs better than an empathy healer)
I team my Brute (DM/FA) with a SG m8 who is a Nec/Dark MM (both of us are lvl 30 ATM) and we rock. His pets take lots of aggro, he heals and debuffs as does his lich pet. When he hits 38 and gets the Dark Servant (Bob! ) we will really be cooking on gas!

I already "zoom" through missons far too quickly with rage...I really want to see speed boost (zooooooom!!!).
I have4 a /kin corruptor and a brute and alternate with some people who have one of each as well ... it gets very silly.

stone/dark brute here teams with a fire/kin corruptor.
It's fast, furious and fun.
personally I like the combo me n Manf have.. he the rad/kin corrupter, me the stone/stone brute.. 1shot galore

Total Cat @Stagefright
I've been thinking of making an other vilain.
I think it's more than likely that I'll be teaming or duoing with at least one Brute.
So my question is... which AT works best with a brute?
