Don't build it for damage, build it for status. 5% status may seem low, but it's a lot higher than other sentinel weapons. Mine has decent status chance, which multiplied by burst fire and multishot (and a riven that gives more multishot), lets it spew viral and electric procs all over the place (both statuses which don't care about the base damage of the weapon applying them, and are useful against every enemy; you could switch to corrosive/cold for grineer. I don't even have a serration on it, just things to maximize the number of procs it can do.
