LITHE → Not much to go on. Try A & O and two more WoFcons
SOLAR → U & Y are still out there. UN- prefix? -LY ending? Some of both? Thought of both of those for a while, but nothing doing. Then, I saw
PLUCK → and I realized I needed to try that last WoFcon, ergo
FLUNK

Scoredle also takes a par. It takes its time finding the vowels, but once it settles on it there’s pretty much no other words left. Me, I prefer to try them at least by the pair, so I have a little more time in case there’s a trap on the way.

Could’ve also been CLUNK; PLUNK had been used.

Fell into a trap and made all the wrong choices.
For what it’s worth, Wordlebot gave me a 91 for skill and 37 for luck.

READY (Backup word to eliminate unused vowels)
BIJOU (Not a promising result)
STUCK (That’s a bit better. I know there’s an N.)
FLUNK (only one I could think of)

I really didn’t want to guess knave because I didn’t think it would be an answer, but I couldn’t find anything else.
