Depends on your playstyle. I like the barbarian.
Warrior is probably the best since you can skip almost everything. Wizard is the most fun to play with since he has a lot of variety for different situations.

For the campaign, they can all do it. Some classes are easier than others, but there really isn't a best. Just play what you enjoy.

For Endless mode. Probably Warrior. I myself prefer to solo with Wizard, but it's slower.

When soloing, everything hurts the enemy a lot, unlike when there's more than two players. The choices don't matter quite as much, then. Just go with what you like the most, but if you insist on knowing the best...

Top Tier (raw power)
THOR
Murder+The Prize+Boots of Ranadam. I believe you'll nearly one-shot Summoning Stones with the potion buff. Don't pop a potion while the boots are active, and vice versa. Anyways, this Thor has massive burst damage and massive DPS.

VALKYRIE
Wrath of the Heavens+Thyra's Vow+Tempest Locket. Smite, like every Weapon Ability besides Extreme Prejudice, leaves Thyra in dire need of more crowd control (and invincibility frames). The upgraded Heavy Slash helps some, but It's basically up to the player to make up for Wrath of the Heavens weakness, and it is seriously not easy. If you are able, however, oh boy are you in for a hell of a ride! In case you still don't get it, don't bother with this unless you are an advanced Valkyrie player.

WIZARD
The Hollow Chapters+Merlin's Bookmark+Siren's Loot. Two simple tricks turn Merlin into a total beast. Trick 1: rapidfire Dark Torrent. Since each cast of this spell does a set amount of damage and there's no set limit on how fast it can be spammed, Dark Torrent simply melts everything. Trick 2: Vacuum a mass of enemies into a Summoning Stone/Boss, then charm with Siren's Loot. Watch Summoning Stone's/Boss' hitpoints evaporate.

ELF
The Messenger+Questor's First Arrowhead+Boot of Ranadam. One-shot multiple Summoning Stones with a potion, two-shot multiple bosses with a couple potions, or even better, do all of that at the same time! Then we have Mortar Shot, with its stupid fast recharge and bunker-busting direct hits. Fire a Mortar Shot, then pop Boots of Ranadam and you can take down a Summoning Stone just as fast as Thyra's Smite. Also, Mortar Shot's stage 1 projectile does full damage against enemies it passes through!

NECROMANCER
Necrotic Vessel+Dream Catcher+Ring of Mirrors. This build is all about snowballing. The more enemies there are, the more powerful Lilith can be. The method generally goes: max out soul power->cast Ring of Mirrors near a very large swell of enemies->immediately get to a decent position and spam Summon Archers whilst spamming Ghostwalk and your attacks. If the screen is filled with enemies, consider popping a potion or two on top of two seperate enemy masses. If the conditions are right, and you set yourself up properly, your minions will be putting out more DPS than 6 players combined (if it were possible to do so).

As a vet of the arcade game in the 80's I say Elf.

Valkyrie, because of her shield, can be impenetrable when positioned correctly. Since Wizard and Elf turn invisible, they can effortlessly hide and kill, with right timing. Warrior and Necromancer can Rush and Ghostwalk, respectively, to safety when there would be precision on the part of the player. Take note that the benefits of the unique talismans and relics haven't even been mentioned.

Hmm... Preference and unique play styles aside, I guess it all boils down to what weapon (weapon ability) and talisman (potion ability) you'd select. Each character can manage, I believe and be the best.

Campaign on Easy, Medium and Hard mode can be easily finished by memorizing moves and techniques of the five playable characters and also the monsters. Plus the levels don't change.

As for the Endless mode, you may have to decide whether you're going to go deeper fast or by taking your time, before you play, so that you could select wisely what weapon and talisman you'd take advantage of.

I'm loving the elf. Once I got the hang of aiming, I found him to be the best for me. He has really good panic buttons

For the most part, I do much better solo with Valkyrie. I mean, in some situations you can basically fend off most attacks via the shield almost indefinitely. :steamhappy:

But I think as with most games with multiiple classes, you'll never get the same answer. :)
