Agree with shotguns except for precision frames people are starting to use them again not even just for the glitch but people are surprised they actually do a lot of damage. It'd be better only to give like a 10% buff. Swords I agree with but two sword frames need some extra buffs for reasons I'll explain Aggressive swords which used to be the king of swords for dealing massive burst damage and having decent dps now have terrible dps and not even the best burst damage the cost of slow swings and low ammo no longer is offset by high damage as now they only deal like 5% more per a swing. I saw a test where a god roll Aggressive dealt like a quarter of any other sword and the only use was a double heavy attack but even with that many swords still would win over them. And then we have caster frames very high ammo cost basically no damage output as basically any special weapon outputs far more dps and total damage you can already see the issue here.
