nades and auras are interchangeable based on team composition
this build is not havoc tested but i've played with a similar build in havoc 30-32 with the supply crate so i know the utility uptime is great and the survivability has good potential based on auric maelstrom/high intensity-shock troop gauntlet runs.
this is a mostly a middle ground role: you can hold and kill a horde of trash decently well and disengage to kill specials and ranged enemies. most specials take 2 yellow needle shots to kill but flamers usually need 3-4 shots to kill in a decent amount of time. these shots to kill do change in havoc 30+ levels so be aware of that.
if you're in a jam, you change to blue needle and just mag dump into the horde to clear a lot of it. just make sure for blue needle that you shoot the body of the enemy to spread toxin. if go for headshots, the blue needle will not apply toxin to others around the target.
hope this helps
