I have different advice on the weapon.

I replaced 90% cold damage mod with Ice Storm

Lethal Torrent boosts fire-rate to 8.3, but Brakk still has 5 round clip with 1 second reload. Without lethal torrent you are at 5 fire-rate with 5 round clip.

Ice Storm allows for 8-shots in 1 second with same 1 second reload.

So due to faster fire-rate than clip-size you spend more time reloading than shooting.

The slight damage decrease is made up by the magazine clip size being upgraded to match the higher-fire rate.

(Still under the 10 fire-rate semi auto hard cap implemented with GU16)

Warframebuilder says 8 bullets is less damage than the 5 bullets, because "I have no idea why"

In game play tells me matching the fire-rate with clip size allows for optimized fire-rate and reload.

DPS calculators disagree

(I suppose that is why people run Lethal Torrent on AkBronco with no mag increase...13+fire-rate with a 6round clip... unrealistic)
