Swashbuckler not buffing Glaive Melee

While using Swashbuckler on a glaive I get swashbuckler x5, however there is no damage increase on melee attacks, only on projectiles. This doesn’t make sense because I’m still using the glaive to hit. Please fix.

    Hey there, that's correct. Glaive Melee only triggers 'on melee kill' perks but also only benefits from melee buff perks also. Weapon damage perks like Rampage, Swashbuckler, etc, only boost damage on the ranged mode. Yes you are technically 'hitting things with the glaive', but it's still just considered to be a melee attack not a weapon attack which is also why it doesn't count as elemental damage, etc.
