You need to get some efficiency back no matter what. Even only with streamline up to measly 75%. Not all situations are comfortable enough to ensure you could recast skills. And before you bring up "but we got energy pizzas anyway", remember those consumables are fleeting.

OP's idea is to utilize overextended to counter narrow minded's range loss, and to bring down your power strength exactly 1% above abating link's full-strip requirement. You'll want some range and duration for link... Using abating link exclusively to melee-shot/melee your opponents doesn't sound like a reliable tactics.

That said, I honestly think this mod is overrated because you can only link so much enemies at once and it has annoyingly slow casting time without natural talent. OP's build burns a lot of mod slots only to counterbalance each other, leaving trinity with less QoL/survivability mods.

If armor stripping is extremely necessary, (e.g. augmented armor hazard), you might want to play seeking shuriken ash or sonic fracture banshee instead.
