The Latron Prime has notably higher damage and on paper the fire rate is very marginally better, but because it doesn't fire in bursts it essentially fires half as fast as the Dex Sybaris. Dex Sybaris also has a massive advantage in Critical Chance over the Latron Prime which, despite having a Critical Damage multiplier of 2.5x, simply does not have enough Critical Chance to create an efficient crit build.

With Argon Scope and Point Strike the Latron Prime only has a 57.5% critical chance, whereas the Dex Sybaris has a 134.75% critical chance, allowing it to crit every hit or get red crits on a rough average of 1 in 3 shots. The Latron can get extremely powerful crits, but it's just not statistically reliable enough to compete with the Sybaris, and red crits do far superior damage to normal crits.

I've used the Latron Prime extensively and I can safely say that my time with Dex Sybaris has been far more fruitful. Latron P does have a lot more Status Chance though so if that's your jam, go for it.
