Damage per shot should be your primary focus- however if you've seen how slow the Opticor charges, you'd learn to appreciate having the extra fire rate mods on it.

Shred helps, but it's really not enough. A second fire rate mod helps loads.

Now, reload speed... really unnecessary, in my opinion. That slot would be better used for fire rate or more damage. Aside from that, you should be aiming for headshots with this thing anyway, which further increases damage potential, giving some freedom to add other things than JUST pure damage.

Like any gun, adding nothing but damage isn't always the best idea.
