Parvos Granum's engineers have made this already ferocious hand cannon even more deadly with the addition of an alternate fire mode that empties an entire clip in one devastating burst.

What? AoE? The Merciless Seeker Combo

This build, I've foregone [Hornet Strike] in favor of [Seeker] for punch through, which is a form of AoE when you damage more than one target. Yes, damage is slightly down, but this build is still Steel Path viable when you keep racking up kills. Secondary Merciless replaced Secondary Deadhead because of the number of kills you quickly rack up!! (And Secondary Deadhead is not reliable right now). Even without Hornet Strike, as long as you are able to kill at least 3 targets, you're double-to-tripling your damage already. Of course, you'll have to max out Secondary Merciless's benefit with 12 kills. You therefore potentially can get up to +720% damage (360% from Secondary Merciless and 360% from [Galvanized Shot], with 3 elementals on this Rad+[Mag]+Heat gun)

Kick off the Secondary Merciless Arcane and Galvanized mods with the secondary shot to unload the magazine. Then the fun snowballs from there as long as you get kills.

This is great for CC frames that clumps the chumps together like [Vauban], [Khora] (Ensnare subsumable), [Nidus] (Larva subsumable), or better yet, as [Mag] in endless missions like Survival or Disruption. Defense missions may work, but it's not friendly to Secondary Merciless arcane, which you will probably drop 2-5 stacks between rounds. You may want Secondary Deadhead as [Khora], because your stunned enemies line up perfectly for headshots. If you can't headshot stunned enemies with [Khora]'s subsumable Ensnare ability, I got nothing else to say to you.

In case you're wondering, this is my 3rd build, and here are the foundations:

You can tell I love my Detron (Yes, I have a sweet Riven, but I also have non-Riven builds to test the potential of the weapon). Holy smokes... changing up the build is FUN.
