Budget friendly casual tank [Grendel] that will let you lazy tank your way through Steel Path and even maybe the first 500 levels in longer missions.
Replace [Flow] and [Continuity] with their Primed Versions if you own them of course.

EHP CALCULATION
Total Health (vitality + arcane blessing) = 3790
Total Armor (base armor + max gourmand) = 2400
Total EHP with adaptation = 3790 / ((1-2400/2700) x (1-0.9)) = 341,100
You can increase this even further by adding more armor e.g. Arcane Guardian over Molt Augmented, Mecha Pulse over Stretch.
HELMINTH OPTIONS
Always subsume over pulverize:
- Breach Surge: stuns eximus, creates damaging sparks
- Roar: boosts weapons and regurgitate damage
- Pull: sucks enemies up to you into a neat ball
