Best xp farm for LOW stats?
"LOW stats" = nothing above 500

edit: also I'm 100% solo, but I do have one of each character that's at least level 70 in godly gear.

Is that doable with a bunch of level 70 characters in godly gear?

I just do the first wave and then reset over and over again?

Yes it's doable with 300 stats and you just restart once you finish the first wave, you can also get some decent gear from the chests so make sure to open them on a summoner

Pure strategy is really easy for most maps once you know the basics of making a build. There are less enemies as a whole and tougher enemies like ogres is most maps wont even appear XP doing pure strat has distinct advantages:

1 enemies cannot hurt you so even on a level 0 hero you are safe from dying
2 since you dont dps you as solo will always get the xp from only building towers
3 Since enemies wont have any elemental resists you wont need strength drain auras or darkness traps so u can spend that du on other damage towers
4 extra heroes wont increase the mob health or amount so with extra controllers or an emulator u can level 4 heroes at a time

Just remember in Pure start you cannot build or repair during combat only upgrade so if you struggle in later waves in might be worth selling and rebuilding auras and traps since the health they have might not last the wave if your gear isnt too good.

So basically pick a map as high up in campaign or tavern defense and pick pure start. I did completely solo tavern defence easy (pure strategy hardcore) in godly gear dropped from running ramparts on hard and pets giving around 44 is on all building stats.And with starter myths dropped from throne room insane survival and giraffes i was able to do hard on tavern defense (pure strat hard) then with luck I got a couple of koblds that then allowed me to do insane. In Insane pure strat I have been getting kobolds with around 250 stats so not the worst pets ever.

Be aware in Purre starategy all drops will be lower including pet rewards than if doing survival so most liely you will only want to do it for XP or for the acheivements you can get.

*UPDATE With around 1k stats(some were around 700) I could successfully complete Tavern Defence Pure Strategy in nightmare hardcore with no Issues. this gives enough xp to get a hero from 0 to around 76 in one run.

From Glitterhelm on, every map except Tavern Defense has ogres (and other tough enemies) on Pure Strategy. It's really just a fluke that Tavern Defense isn't set up correctly, so people run it for exp. TD is nice because it's relatively easy, but if you can manage them, there are much quicker alternatives for the same stats.

There's no such thing as Pure Strategy Hardcore. Even though you can check the box, it doesn't do anything on Pure Strategy mode.

What are the quicker alternatives?

Or, to put it another way:

what gives the most xp per hour when you have < 500 stat characters?

In case anyone comes across this thread later on, dizzydiana's suggestion was excellent; even with low stats I was able to complete Tavern Defense on Hard and then fully complete Pure Strategy Mode on it as well. I might have the stats to do Insane, but my characters aren't really fast enough to put down all the defenses before the timer runs out (the chests on this map are also spaced way far apart).

I made a build/guide for doing this as well: DunDefPlanner guide[dundefplanner.com]

Not that I need the answer, but others might find it helpful to know your results:
How much XP you scored on such a run and how long it took.
