The thing is, your Braton Prime does only do 60% of its damage as Slash damage. So it's not recommended to boost this damage type of your weapon. Even with a decent Riven, you'll sacrifice too much damage. For a pure slash based weapon, you need 85%+ Slash-Dmg and a high base-dmg (e.g. Miter). Try a Corrupted Heavy Gunner in the Simulacrum. Even with Hunter Munitions, your slash procs are weak.

Go for corrosive damage, thats way more effective/efficient. Put more Forma on your Braton and swap Heavy Caliber for 2x 90% elemental-mods.
