If you'd look at the Vulkar's stats, you'll see that the damage is skewed heavily towards impact damage, limiting its versatility against anything else besides shielded enemies. I'd say the Vectis is more well rounded, but only if you can get over the slow ROF thanks to the 1 sec reload after every shot. On he other hand, the Vulkar's 4 round magazine takes 4 seconds to reload as well.
If ever, try the Latron, Mark and Hellheart will testify to its effectiveness. I however, lean towards automatic weapons even at extreme ranges like the Karak, Braton or Soma.
A crowd control secondary is a bit hard to come by because of the limited total ammo capacity of the secondary slot (Augmentable by the Trick Mag mod however). However, do try any of the dual pistols like the Aklex, Akmagnus, or Akvasto. They are fast enough to kill small groups of enemies at close range if you spam fire. Their single wield counterparts are accurate enough to have limited sniping use.
If you want a more dedicated sniper secondary, then you might try the Seer. It also has the best zoom capabilities among the secondary weapons.
For melee, if you like the Gram, you'll love the Galatine. Slower charge attack, but double damage then that of the Gram.
