Build Strategy

Stutter Step Gunner

The Soldier cannot attack while moving but gains massive Damage and Attack Speed bonuses while standing still. The core gameplay loop is 'stutter stepping': moving briefly to dodge or reposition, then stopping to unleash fire. High pickup range allows you to collect materials and consumables without having to run around the map.

A Ghost Scepter is a highly recommended secondary weapon purchase. Since you are killing enemies efficiently while standing still, it allows you to stack significant Max HP over the course of the run, covering your defensive needs.
