Best possible build for Autodidact?

I've recently bought Adam Francis (No spirit, I'm hearing impaired and would do terrible on her) and wondering what's the best possible build for Autodidact? I like taking one perk specific to one survivor and building around it. I'm considering running Autodidact, WGLF, borrowed Time, and empathy. I know Autodidact isn't the best perk but I find it so fun when it actually works. Any suggestions?

    As someone who loves the healing perks, I tend to run WGLF, Empathy and Solidarity along with Autodidact. If you’re not a fan of Solidarity then We’ll make it tends to be a good choice (although can counter autodidact as you have less time to get skill checks).

    Borrowed time is a great substitute if you don’t have Jane Romero or you just don’t like the perk which I wouldn’t blame you for.

    I would use Solidarity in the place of BT....



    IF I HAD IT.

    Empathy, the rest is barely relevant.

    Solidarity is just a weak perk, and WGLF has straight up negative impact on your autodidact build efficiency.

    I agree. Spinechill might be a good choice as it increases skill check chances, but I'm not sure if it works on autodidacts skill checks.

    Solidarity feels like the only helpful perk for autodidact.

    run spine chill with it other than that don't run any other healing speed perks

    you want tokens and that means you want a longer time to get those tokens so running even more perks to shorten that time isn't that good of an idea. for a consistent healing build yes but not with autodidact.

    once you get max tokens your heals when you get skill checks are just as fast more of the time faster than a standard healing build.

    only perk i can also recommend using with it as others have said is solidarity.

    Bond + Second wind. Bond is just perfect to find any injured target while it also helps u play the game in general. Second Wind to get some somethintg out of the heals u do for yourself. 4th perk can be anything

    Empathy and "spine chill", but if you don't like the to use spine chill you can run "This Is Not Happening".
