"Exactly what I mean. Constant skill spam and full power during long mission runs is almost a must on excal, as his spells offer him cc and mobility, as well as a raw damage nuke(not that effective end-game tho). And I've beefed him up with both vitality and redirection mods, and just to say: It's my own way of seeing how excal should be played, not recommending it for everyone as excal has strengths in other categories too."

Excalibur is many things, many great things, but tank isn't one of them. None of what you mentioned is at all tanky, aside from Vitality/Redirection, which is like saying Ember is tanky because she can use those mods. That was the reason for my comment. I love Excalibur, but just to be clear, he is not tanky. (cc≠tank)
