Survival mode - Alette 1 hit kill Monster killer strategy
Defeat every wave with this strategy and get the wave breaker achievement, even on Hard. The strategy revolves around Alette's Overwatch ability. I've broken down into 3 categories, range, Support, and "Skills to move enemies". If I don't mention an item, skill, or title, feel free to customize as you see fit. Happy hunting! :steamhappy:

Range
  • Alette - Overwatch and Monster Killer +5. An item with knockback >4 like Solvi's method which also has 2 range which extends how far overwatch can reach.
  • Canary - She has high attack. Give her skills for critical chance like "The Forsaken" and Artery strike with Thostr's tooth

    Support
  • Aleo - Alette's attack is low to begin, so give her a boost with Skald's song. Use the Mask of Andrveti to draw in enemies and leave Aleo next to
  • Alette to get bonus Will when she scores a kill.

    Skills to move enemies
  • Egil - Make sure he has the skill Guts. This can give free "sliding damage" when you knockback units while ignoring their armor. When they move,
  • Alette takes a shot via overwatch.
  • Kivi - Tank. Use "Unbent" for resistance. Kindle and Drumfire to reduce shields and to move units into range of overwatch
  • Iver - Forge ahead to move units around in the battle order is useful, he has high armor and attack and can use battering ram to move enemies in range of Alettes.
