Loch gat deals 38% higher DPS than greased. I vote option 3

ZnC:
My suggestion and Daft's are going towards the same direction. I was going to say that I'd vote for either one... until I pulled the numbers.

Reducing clip size by 40% (as opposed to 50%) gives the Lumberjack, Light Flak and Hades an extra shot. That (along with only -20% RoF) would very definitely break them. I don't think -20% RoF is enough to balance the sheer 125% increase in damage; Loch Gat would still be broken.

Clip Size should stay at 50%. Rate of Fire can be fine-tuned (40-60%). I have no opinions on Rotation Speed and Jitter (as long as no drastic changes).

Naoura:
Option 2 (ZanC)
    100%
    -50%
    -50%
    -80%
    -60%
   

BlackenedPies:
That's a good point ZnC, clip should remain at -60% or change to -50%. I don't think gat dps is a problem with a small ROF reduction, like -20%, if rotation was reverted to -90

-50% ROF sounds high, and I'm not sure loch could remain competitive on light guns with it, but it might also change repair cycles. I'll run the numbers later, but like you said, the suggestions are very similar and just comes down to finding the right numbers
