[Haste]

Codename balance has not been reviewed yet (unlike cl7 and cl8 guns), but you're definitely underestimating the importance of a couple dozen points of damage per gun in shotguns. It can make the difference between one-shotting light VHFs/heavy HFs with a full 2.00 loadout + an MR and doing near-lethal damage. This is why people fly Magma Hammer + Excalibur loadouts over 6 Magma Hammers.

It's highly unlikely there'll ever be linear progression of DPS and efficiency. If that were the case, higher DPS codenames would be superior to lower DPS non-codes in every single situation. Codes do not exist to provide objectively superior weapon options. They're just different (even though 95% of them are currently flat-out useless, admittedly).
