^^ even tho impact makes up the majority of IPS dmg, that impact dmg is reduced AFTER elemental mod dmg is already scaled and applied, so by reducing the weapons main IPS, it basically turns the sobek into an elemental dominant shotgun...or if the user wants to get real cute he can add sweeping serration and turn the sobek into a slash dominant shotgun. Either way, reducing a weapons main IPS stat (with the exception of slash dominant weapons) usually is an upgrade.
