For the most part, any frame that multiplies weapon damage does pretty good. (Nova, Banshee, Mirage, Excalibur, Loki, Ash)  Due to doing insane amounts of damage with their weapons. Mesa is odd though, in that her multipliers are kind of low compared to the other ones, (1 or 4x Nova, up to 14.2X for everyone (but especially AoE weapons) Banshee, up to 15.3x Mirage (self only), 4x Excalibur (everyone)/Loki/Ash(self only))  Mesa has two weapon amplification abilities, but both are extremely odd. One of them can theoretically boost her damage to 208%, but only with absolutely optimal usage, and the other is random, if she's solo it will always boost her by up to 71%, but in a team it can jump to other teammates instead of her. This combines for a total of up to 3.56X, but only if she's solo and uses Ballistic Battery perfectly (ridiculously hard, it not only has to be continuosly spammed to do so, but you have to not super overkill anything with it, as well as it needing to be fed energy to spam)

If anything, I'd almost say she's Kind of like Zephyr, she has a wierd, kinda unreliable CC ability (again unless solo) and a bullet nigh-immunity effect, so she's really a soloist character, or maybe some type of bruiser in a team. She amps her damage a bit, one shots some bosses, and can tank quite well. Well.. I guess Rhino can boost damage too, but his is the weakest damage boost of all, even when modded for. Limbo is the new kid on the block, and gets a combination of decent CC, Excellent utility, and strong damage amplification abilities that are hard to use well. Limbo also has epic survivability... but only when he's not amping his damage on lots of targets. Pretty much like Mirage there, really.
