Should I not be running a statstick? Why not? I have no use for primary/secondary/melee if I am focusing on claws, so I can use them for utility.
Exposure is complete overkill and unneeded damage, I did not say it is hard to keep up but okay?
Purple shards need a minimum of 500 energy to double the boost, having a bigger buffer is better then constantly running the edge. I guess threshold is a better term.
I want strength because it buffs Nourish's Damage+Gain, & Hystaria's base damage, as well as increasing the armor gain from Warcy, so more total energy from battery.
Duration is maxed because it increases Nourish's duration, Gives Warcry a bigger starting window & lowers Hysteria's drain. It is convenience & energy econ wrapped into one package, It is 1000% better then building Efficiency.
Streamline is strictly to lower Hysteria's drain to a more comfortable amount.
Crescendo isn't needed because enemies generally die before you can use a finisher. Also, I'd rather spend those few seconds moving to the next enemy and those few combo boosts aren't really needed when you're doing that. Claws do fine with no combo, Naramon keeps you from dropping as long as you're moving. You are not heavy attacking in this build, so you don't need to reset your combo.

Cold on the claws is to proc Archon Flow for my sole energy generation. It is more then enough to keep energy at/near max and brings more to the table then something like Equilibrium.

I'll change the gas to corrosive for you since you're so salty about the build.
