If I forego all the shadowloom and spyder i have a good 145p to spend somewhere else maby on some bubblet wrap for the stalkers? Or higher unit squats of scarabs?

I'd suggest you take the Tomb Blade's nebuloscopes. Seeing as you've already taken the shieldvane upgrade for survivability.

That and maybe take a few of them with the tesla carbines. As you can always bet on at least a little Rng working in your favor.

Yeah I won't be taking any tesla simply because it's not points efficient with the new codex, tesla was king before but not anymore. If I would trade any blasters it would be for some Particles instead for quick cheap clear of t-shirt saves on objectives.

If I forego the triarch stalker and all the shadowloom on every tomb Blade except the first in the unit that I use to take on -ap saves aswell as the spyder that gives me enough points to add a full 10 man dispersion shield and hyperphase lychguard unit to veil as a big roadblock for massive headache as everything with obsec zooms forward with good speed and obsec.
The castle is able to overwatch for free against anything that charges any of them so I think that is quite allright especially for the points

Understandable; tesla has always come down to more of a preference for me than one of necessity.
As for the Lychguard, that's a good choice. You will need something that can shrug off those extra wounds and having the spider nearby to shore up any losses can make them far more tankier than what most other armies can put out. Especially if they don't dedicate half their armies shooting phase to dealing with it.

Yes I think the threat saturation of the vailed lychguard blob, C'tan and Castle with obsec scarabs and fast tomb blades able to react everywhere is the way to go. The technomancer gives the castle the +1 to hit aura aswell as the extended 9" instead of the usual 6" and if one stalker dies he can revive it if I'm not mistaken about the Phylacterine

The main reason I'm going void dragon over nightbringer is to compete in more phases aswell as being able to deal with knights lists more effectively, I am going to enter a competetibe scene with this and I hope it does well

The Phylacterine doesn't quite work like that. In concept, sure, but you don't get to reanimate a unit that's fully dead. Each doomstalker is a unit of 1 model, so if the model is destroyed, you can't ever target it w/ rites of reanimation to begin with, so you can't bring it back up. It works for things like wraiths, scarabs, spyders, etc. which all have variable unit size.
