The Tysis pistol spits out caustic darts that corrode their victims from within.

This is built as a single-target primer best used in stealth gameplay with a oneshot primary/melee weapon.
This build lets you prime enemies for killing; its capability to fully stack Corrosive and Viral, and apply Heat, Impact, Puncture and Slash, totaling to 6 status effects, make it a very effective single-target primer.
The Anti-alloy [Lex Prime] wasn't cutting it for me, and the [Epitaph]'s chargeup is still too weird for me.
On a whim, I tried out priming with this weapon for my [Sharpshooter] [Rubico] against level 110 Grineer: it was surprisingly effective, even against Noxes.
This gun fires projectiles with flight time and has the highest status chance of all secondaries, tied with the [Epitaph] and [Kuva Nukor]; great stats for a primer.
The darts deal IPS and corrosive damage, and does not have AOE; since the corrosive damage is innate, we can build heat and viral on this baby - the perfect status trio.
This weapon will be tested against enemy Grineer in general.
Since this weapon does not have AOE, it can be used as a single-target primer at best. Single-target primers aren't really the best primers to go around with, but they could prove useful in stealth gameplay where you're unseen and you take enemies down one at a time.
Thus, we'll be building this for stealth and possibly weapon-switching: we'll be slapping on [Suppress] and probably [Reflex Draw]. There are better mods to slot than the latter mod, though. We'll be tackling its substitutes along the way.
Multishot's always good, so we'll slot in (Amalgam) [Barrel Diffusion]. We could probably also use [Lethal Torrent] alongside this mod, for an 80% chance (70% with the amalgam mod) for the gun to fire 3 darts; a great substitute for Reflex Draw.
Since we're building this for priming, we'll slot in 60/60 heat and viral mods, namely [Pistol Pestilence], [Frostbite] and [Scorch], as well as [Sure Shot] for more chances of proccing an additional status effect. With Stunning Reload, we can [Reach] 200% status chance, which means every dart will proc 2 status effects; a great substitute for [Reflex Draw].
Since we're building status on this baby, status duration is always a nice thing to go for: we have [Augur Seeker] or [Perpetual Agony] for that. It's not really that necessary, though, especially if you're going to use this with a [Glaive].
For the exilus slot, [Lethal Momentum] matches the polarity, and is perfect for our weapon since it shoots projectiles and isn't hitscan.
Considering the low magazine size and potential to run out of ammo (since it takes a little less that half the magazine to fully stack Corrosive and Viral), we can consider slotting in Eject Magazine and Pistol Ammo Mutation.
