How do you build around the Worm?

Is it worth trying to keep prayers below max to get the Corrosion and healing? I've been trying to build around Corrosion with Newtform and Acidify, but it seems like my survival is mostly luck.

I used I think it's Gala culture that heals for chunks of health per empty armor slot. Use first prayer, then heal up before anything can get to you.
Combine with astral and you can use prayer 2 whenever you want.
Morbumancy and Stand Ground work well here too as defense against faster enemies. Stand Ground probably works better with Newt for the extra attacks. Watch out for enemies with retort :)

Life Chant can work really well to get healing back from all the enemy motion, can then combine that with other life stuff like arboromancy / overgrowth / vinakinesis (I was trying something like this)

Thank you both! I ended up forcing my idea through with some early levels in Fire Healing and Vigor, not to mention an Acid Knife. I even made a couple mistakes by taking Frenzied One and Mass Mind, but I guess my damage loop was secure lol.
