I still use Vaykor Marelok as my high dmg pistol. it can be build for crit with element, 100% status, or pure crit and still be better than the euphona. its a pocket sniper rifle in this game. the euphona has better dmg on the alt fire, but you need to stick the barrel right next to the bad guys to get the full dmg, the fall off is insane. any whip melee has better range than this euphona's alt fire, and it can freaking crit/red crit/plus apply bleeding with crit, if they are still alive.

imho there are not many good options for a secondary. I have put a lot of forma on some that get the nerf hammer, but as of late I have been looking at other options for what I need in a secondary to run with a primary sniper, or shotgun, or aoe type primary. Before Plains update I had Vaykor Marelok(great crit, great status, hitscan, pocket sniper), Rakta Ballistica (for ivara mostly), Hikou Prime (concealed explosives + gas fun and self murder lol), Sonicor(terrible reload, but great for short range AoE and good dmg), Staticor( also good for AoE, but you need both lethal mods to make it better), Synoid Gammacor!!!!(when this thing was useful it was op for fighting Vorr in the old T4 keys, haven't used it in years!), and I have finally modded up the Akstiletto Prime(which somehow mows stuff down for an ato pistol).

Oh before dmg 2.0 normal Marelok, Brakk, and Acrid(more op back then) were the best secondary weapons.

hope this helps, and always check MR req on stuff before you gift it. Better yet, take your buddy with you on fissure missions to teach him the game, and how to worship and pray to RNGeebus for the rare parts.
