Let's give you the rundown :

Null star is useless, drop it from your build.

Antimatter drop is pretty darn much unmoddable save for energy cost, and you want to keep it because, well, with a good weapon or extreme teamwork that thing wrecks far, FAR into T4.

Wormhole is nice to have and use, but you shouldn't give it any priority in a survive-and-destroy build. For running purposes this is your most important ability though.

Antimatter Prime got changed, it's effective range of primation is now dependant on power duration, the slow it causes and the damage of its explosions are affected by power strength, and its explosion sizes are power range dependant.

Let's assume you want a build that works for T4 survival. This sacrifices some things, but it is able to head anywhere and finish the job.

You'll want your energy costs as low as possible, so pop in a Fleeting Expertise and Streamline rank 2. Expertise sacrifices duration, and your ult wants duration to spread, so you pick up narrow minded (as high levelled as possible) to counteract this. Narrow Minded sacrifices power range - you have no need of this, since your 2 and 4 don't care about this (Drop doesn't care at all, Prime wouldn't explode everything at any rate, it just serves as CC and damage multiplier).

Next, you'll want to make Prime's slow stronger. Get Intensify (max) in the setup, and perhaps consider Blind Rage if more slow is desired (I doubt it, I never need more than the slow Intensify gives me) - if you take Blind Rage, also equip max Streamline.

This is the end of your ability modding, from here on out you'll want to equip Redirection and Vitality, perhaps Rush or Wormhole (although its range is severely weakened it still offers a lot of mobility) or whatever mods you like.

Also, equip Energy Siphon, the health regen aura, or Corrosive Projection.

For some example builds :

General purpose : http://goo.gl/2gOuQu

Extreme slow : http://goo.gl/EO5j7r

Anti-slow :http://goo.gl/ulxmBx

And if you want a high mobility build, maximize power strength efficiency and duration, get null star, worm hole and rush, equip stretch, get redirection and vitality, and run around looking at stuff getting pew'd by your motes. But that sucks
