andrewwynn will become famous soon enough
I usually start with hammer in a torx bit that is big enough to cut its own groves. Then use impact tool. I have nearly 100% success with this method. CW a couple taps to help break the seal.

If that doesn't work drill out and use bolt extractor. Use right angle adapter when drilling or you'll get a drill full of oil.

Draining the pan will remove any drilling debris.
