Greetings,

Below is a comment from Akihiko Matsui that addresses some of the questions you have brought up.

On a side note, the development team understands that the stats for “True Flight” are somewhat lacking, and they are currently looking into large scale adjustments for all elemental weapon skills. This should also increase the usability of Gastraphetes and Death Penalty.

Has the damage value for Gastraphetes and Death Penalty been swapped?
I apologize, but due to a bug the damage value for Death Penalty is much higher than what we had intended. This will be corrected in the December version update.
