I've actually taken to running my Wraiths without upgrades. My local meta knows what they do and dumps loads of fire into them immediately when they get into range/vision which isn't too hard as they are huge. They are a good bullet magnet and even after weathering fire they can tie somebody up for a turn or two and net a few kills. I drop the coils because they usually end up lost before they hit the fight.

I do this too now. They end up taking a punishing amount of fire no problem, but invariably, I lose my whipcoils before combat. So I skip em.
