The Espada and Scottish Sword changes are horrible, now the Espada is basically worse in every way, I mean it's slower, got less damage, takes up one slot and not 0, only thing it's still better at is the length, and if you felt like long range mattered much for 1h, you'd be using a long espada or something.
The Scottish sword needs a nerf or the Espada (and long espada) needs a buff for them to stay viable.
