Hikou Prime reloads 60% faster, has 30% more magazine and fires ~15% slower. Hikou Prime and Hikou both fire roughly the same amount of ammo in any given logical time. You're not firing 'more' with standard Hikou.

Adding Fire Rate mods makes Hikou Prime expend exponentially more ammo than Hikou in any given logical time.

There's no reason to use the standard Hikou over Hikou Prime, especially if you're adding Fire Rate mods (gunslinger+lethal torrent).

CE is better than Heated Charge and equal to PHC on paper... until you factor body multipliers, Heat / Radiation weaknesses, criticals, armor scaling, and warframe abilities. So, unless you're killing enemies in 2-3 explosions, HC will give massively more damage against single targets. Don't replace HC and especially PHC for CE... CE is fun and completely viable against lvl 20-~50 infested, and corpus or lower level Grineer. Using it elsewhere you lose an utter massive, in relevancy, amount of damage.

Unfortunately, CE doesn't not proc blast like Thunderbolt but is otherwise far more viable for damage.
