The Vaykor Marelok has a fire rate of 2 and a reload rate of 1.7 with a 10-round magazine. Firing 20 shots with it takes 11.7 seconds.

The Lex Prime has a fire rate of 2.08 and a reload of of 2.3 with an 8-round magazine. Firing 20 shots with it takes 14.2 seconds.

The Vasto Prime has a fire rate of 5.4 with a reload of 1 with a 6-round magazine. Firing 20 shots with it takes 6.7 seconds.

Your proposed Vasto Prime would, factoring in crits and a base crit build (no adept mods, just prime pistol gambit and target cracker) would be 60% higher DPS than the Lex Prime with 80 damage, and very nearly double (199.7%) the DPS of the lex prime with 100 base damage. AND it would have a much better damage type.

It would be the most overpowered secondary weapon in the game by such a tremendous margin that you'd have to be an idiot to use anything else.
