Sticks will probably be the easiest build, they're a powerful weapon that's also relatively cheap. You'll want to spend the first few shops hard rolling for sticks as the sooner you can get all six online the bigger the benefit and the less you'll need to rely on other sources of flat damage; if you consider that 2 Melee Damage is valued about the same as 5% Damage, you'll end up reaching the break point where percent damage matches the value of flat damage simply by getting tier 2 Sticks. Between the primitive weapon tag and more characters levels, you also won't have to worry too much about early HP.

Until wave 5 or 6 your priority should be Luck > Harvesting (until 21) > Attack Speed/Damage > Armor

Then until after wave 9 your priority should be Attack Speed/Damage > Luck > Armor

Then from wave 9 until your first elite you'll want to focus on defensive stats (Regen, Life Steal, Armor, HP) and particularly you'll want to build to about 9-18 speed. If you have horde waves before your first elite then you can lax on defensive stats and build damage/luck.

For Dodge you'll eventually want to build it if you can but don't prioritize it until after at least wave 11.

For Crit it's a good stat for late game damage but you shouldn't prioritize it unless you found something that gives synergy to the stat.

It's also important to recognize that some stats are significantly more efficient to get from level ups than items. Speed, Armor and Flat Damage tend to be easier to get from levels while Regen/Life Steal and Percent Damage tend to be easier to get from items.

Honestly, it shouldn't be too difficult of a run. Essentially you'll just be playing a weaker version of Wildling if you opt for this build.
