Here is a guide to the best solo character in Borderlands 4. See the best characters and the best solo character here.

Vex shines as the best solo character thanks to her ability to summon allies through the Phase Phamiliar or Dead Ringer action skills. These minions not only provide consistent damage but also draw enemy aggro, taking the pressure off you.
In tough Fight For Your Life moments, the summons can finish off enemies for a revive, giving you a second chance without relying solely on landing another gun kill.
Best Character and Vault Hunter Tier List
| Character | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
Vex |
・Able to summon allies which can deal damage and draw aggro | ・Lacks crowd control |
Amon |
・Tanky character with great durability and melee | ・Reliant on melee and ordnance ・Affinities mostly limited to fire and ice |
Rafa |
・Overdrive allows him to move quickly ・Good for short to medium range ・Flexible playstyle due to various skills |
・Needs to move a lot to dodge enemies ・Needs good shields to survive early game |
Harlowe |
・Has several crowd control abilities ・Can act as a support |
・Reliant on Maliwan gear ・Limited to Cryo and Radiation |

While Vex excels at solo play, every Vault Hunter can be viable with the right skills and build. Each character has abilities that boost HP or shield regeneration, which should be prioritized for survivability when playing alone.
Some characters and builds may face greater challenges, but with persistence and smart play, it is more than possible to progress through the game and overcome even the toughest enemies and bosses.
