Multishot isn't as consistent. You already have 100%, so 20% on top will just give you 20% chance to fire 3 pellets instead of two, though for each pellet your Hek fires, which kinda helps. If you have (and you should) at least +% damage and +% armor piercing damage, then Multishot is better, without any doubt. Simply because multishot ups every type of damage. Even though you just get 20% chance to fire third pellet, this pellet will deal full bonus damage for each mod, including Freezing. As long as you have necessary mods (say, armor piercing for Grineer) increasing Multishot is always better than anything else in terms of damage buff.
