Either.

Tridents have the higher burst damage, at 14k (level 8) against a Zeus' 10k (level 7). Plus, they're not reliant on DPM. So you don't have to stand out in the open or have to pop in and out of cover.

Zeus have higher DPM, at 1.7k cycle DPS (level 7) against a Trident's 1.1k (level 8). So if you're good at getting into strong, protected positions, and you can always shoot, go for the Zeus.
