They should easily output more damage than heroics vs their target. I've measured them to ensure so, though the accuracy may be the downfall.
Draconic should be the best in slot vs dragons, hands down. It deals up to 45% more damage vs dragons. That's a huge increase, not sure why you think it does less. Probably because better players are out performing you? Hydra could definitely use a touch up, but Stormforged is supposed to be the primary item vs kraken, hydra is a lower tier/much more common prim compared to it.
Add for the 'deal extra damage to users wielding'. It's a tough call, 10-15% damage increase vs some targets can be a decent increase. For instance, this applies AFTER the damage is scaled, meaning if your gun deals 46 headshot damage, you will then 2 shot headshot users affected by your trait.
But I'm not against buffing them, however, is it really okay to have super common traits like that, that increase your damage output by 25%+ to specific people(assuming it is buffed to be that % or higher)? And should I add more traits to help counter known 'op' items? "Deals x% extra damage to users wielding items with more than xDPS" "Deals x% extra damage to users wielding azuredge", etc.
