Doesn’t really matter who if you do the run properly. Artifact of Command helps a ton, but if you’re not running artifacts, you want to get into the void portal under the bazaar early as possible. Get the extra items from down there to help you scale a bit faster (time is stopped in there) and just rush the teleporter after that. Stop only to grab a few chests before advancing. You can also enter the code to loop for the artifact of.... sacrifice? Whichever makes mobs drop items. Time is stopped in there too and monsters can drop items so you can farm up a bunch of extra goodies in there to help you push through the loop levels. Getting items without progressing time makes a massive difference. With sacrifice and command on, you can set up an infinite AFK farm in the void and have hundreds of items by the 5 minute mark.

Otherwise, loader might actually be your best option. They all can do it though. I typically found Captain to be good for it. Those microbots do wonders for keeping you alive.

Well. Anyone, really. Your question may as well be "Who is best to run as", since solo vs. multiplayer doesn't change much.

In which case the usual broken candidates are Loader and Bandit. I'd like to put together more of a tier list, but all the survivors are pretty good in their own right. Except Commando, maybe.

The best to solo run with is the one you are best with in a solo run :)

Everyone plays differently and there are too many ways to survive.

captain. Get every item in the game, and the defenstive nano bots cancel out about half of the enemies in the game

Bandit. He has a shot gun. Use the artifact command, stack wisp + ukulele and enjoy the trip.

Using Command can make literally any survivor OP.

Bandit is a strong contender, but Command has nothing to do with it.

Bandit is really strong right now, and some argue that he might actually be too strong.

If you can master the art of sneaking behind your enemies, you can get pretty far without too much of a struggle.

any character is too strong if you're gamer enough

Bandit also does double damage if you shoot at something's backside. This also stacks with all of your items/etc. So if you do, say, 45K damage to something while doing this, THAT is carried through those ukeleles/etc.
