QUESTION Good STH loadouts

What are some optimal/viable loadouts for survive the horde? I wanna get the hotwire hero but i got smeared across the pavement trying to play it alone and with my loadout. Any suggestions would be appreciated

I used a low cooldown war cry build, we survived till the wave 14, but two teammates decided to quit, was pretty efficient

Don’t play it solo it’s not impossible but is incredibly difficult as for load outs your gonna want a constructor with some survivability I’ll give an example

Warden Kyle

Supercharged traps

Lofty architecture

Power modulation

Electrified floors

Frozen castle

Mega base

And for gadgets I recommend Slow field and drone u might wanna replace drone with banner but keep in mind you can’t respawn in STH

If you want a damage build u can use the standard teddy build which I don’t really recommend or standard xenon bow build but the one I use when I want damage is

Dragon scorch

Blakebeards stash

Ghoulish cackle

Swab the deck

Tail of the dragon

Avast mateys

Goin coconuts

Gadgets are drone and adrenaline rush (cuz this build is a glass canon lol)

These are just what has worked for me I’m sure there are other better loadouts especially for the constructor but these have served me well for challenge 5 140s

Depends on how many is in your party, what the other people are using, power level of yourself / heroes and power level of the mission.

Assuming you want to play solo, I'd go for BASE Kyle in the lead with Power BASE Knox in support to increase your builds' health and make them regen over time. That would be the basic loadout and you can then add others to taste.

Playing solo means you're not going to be able to collect all of the supply drops, so you may find you run short of resources early on, but I don't see Recycling as the most necessary of team perks, just prioritise what gets upgraded at what stage.

thanks, also would it be better to run ability builds like going commando over regular gun-based builds?

Dragon Slash / Going Commando builds are going to be able to get rid of a lot of husks, which means the elimination stages will be easier. You'll still want at least one constructor to keep the defence strong
