Surgical not actually doing anything on grenadier gauntlet

Issue Description:
Fully charging the special attack with the grenadier gauntlet with surgical 4 does the same damage as a non charged special attack, which is less than a normal shot btw. I hope this is bugged/not intended because otherwise yikes.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Get a grenadier gauntlet with surgical as a blessing
  2. go into the psychanium
  3. tap E on the body of the scab mauler(you can attack the head but you have to be consistent between the two trials)
  4. Record the damage dealt, both from the punch and explosion. For me, the explosion does 888 and the punch does 77
  5. Make sure to kill your target(the scab mauler) and let them respawn before doing this second bit
  6. Repeat step 3 BUT hold E to charge up the special attack to build surgical stacks
  7. record the damage dealt(total and individual).
  8. You will see THEY DO THE SAME TOTAL DAMAGE, WHICH IS LESS THAN USING A NORMAL BRACED SHOT AND USING A NORMAL HEAVY ATTACK AGAINST FLAK COMBINED.
