Despair higher base damage, Hikou faster fire rate lower damage it really depends on your play style if you like one-two shotting things go despair if you wanna feel like a crazy shuriken throwing maniac throwing shurikens at blinding speed go Hijou as for actual DPS computations I think someone here from the community will post a dps comparison of both weapons lol

Despair blows kunai and hikou out of the water. Having more damage per shot is almost always better than shooting more things due to ammo efficiency.

Despair relies a bit more on the player being accurate, but that's a negligible drawback to the massive damage gap there is between the two weapons and it is far more ammo efficient.

Not disagreeing, but I wouldn't say "always". Actually depends on the burst length needed actually. If I don't exceed the maximum burst length before I can recharge ammo, then having less ammo efficiency don't really matter. (e.g. carry dual vipers just to use it to kill boss).

 

And not specifically about hikou vs despair, proc rate is almost always higher with more projectiles. That may  be of concern to some builds/tactics.

 

Personally though, I prefer despair too :)

Hikou PRIME is better than Despair DPS-wise and Proc-wise, but it eats Ammo rather Quickly (Unless you have a Nekros on your team or tons of Ammo Pancakes). And they have the Same Polarities!

 

Despair = Burst and Accuracy

Hikou Prime = DPS and Proc
