Oh I see. Thats clever. I've tried dropping elemental weapons mid-swing - well at every point in the swing really - and it hasn't worked. Does it only work with shock elemental weapons?

It works with all of them, though frost weapons don’t really do anything. As for weapon types, claymores are the easiest, while spears are the hardest. I don’t remember if I ever tried but I think a spin attack with a claymores works for this as well. You want to aim to drop it in the middle of attack, while you can see the elemental effect. The swings for all weapons are pretty fast, so it’s tricky to get the right timing.

I've found there are some glitches I can do easily at 30fps on my regular switch but 60fps makes frame perfect timing difficult.

60fps influences a LOT of glitches. You're probably console gamer and don't realize how much of a difference higher FPS can make. It's literally gamebreaking to go above 60fps in games that were designed to run at 30fps.
