Not accounting for rivens, it is almost guaranteed to be an upgrade if you include the extra damage bonus. With the minimum damage bonus of 25% the Kuva Drakgoon deals the same damage (within 0.5%) as the Drakgoon on a charged shot, and if the damage bonus is higher than 40% even the uncharged shot deals more. Toss in the dramatically higher status chance and the QoL improvements such as reload speed etc, and I'd call this a strict upgrade. With a high damage bonus and crit mods, I don't think even a god-mode riven could make up the difference.
