MMs are tanks themselves when played correctly, but you really can't go wrong. Even both of you as MMs would be very good.
You know, now that I think about it, Arachnos Soldier could be the best partner to the MM, with their unique versions of Manuvers, Assault, and Tactics, combined with the default versions

Brutes can't use broadswords, and tanks barely deal any damage, so I'd say broadsword/shield scrapper. You're really going to be happiest if you have a good damager with you, I think. On the other hand, the Shield/Axe tank gets a lot of benefit out of phalanx fighting if they team with you, cause she can stand by the demons for added defense. (She'll want to stand by the ember demon anyway, for heals and resistance buffs.)

My partner knows she wants to go with the shield set, but hasn't yet decided on the class or other powerset. From your experience, which would go best with Demon Summonging: a Shield/Battle Axe tank, a Broadsword/Shield Brute, or a Broadsword/Shield Scrapper? |

^ This I think.
A Crab or a Fort for all the lovely ranged AOE. Why not a Bane or Night Widow? Because trying to be in melee when all those demons are clambering around I've found to be a nightmare.

Not so much so since you can easily push them aside, and considering it's only 1 Mastermind there won't be a high stacking amount of collision. (Ahem. I'm looking at you Spelunkering Mastermind team!).
