Mining resources gives you XP, and lets you buy upgrades between missions. I just run around ignoring bugs and mine all the resources, throwing upgrades into sludge pump and other weapons that will kill stuff following me.

In-between stages I'm usually able to buy 4-6 upgrades, and by the end I'm dealing way more damage than I can as any other classes. Only downside is that I often end stages early by accident because I can trigger the elite pretty fast, and he dies from trying to follow me through my sludge.
