They're a random drop from the boss, so your chalice has no effect on collecting them. So if you're a Hunter or Titan, get into the Heroic Menagerie and start farming those swords.
It should be noted that both Lightweight and Aggressive Frame swords have higher Damage Per Second and higher Total Damage than Adaptive Frame swords with equivalent perks.
Legendary Adaptive Frame Swords all have the exact same DPS ignoring perk combos. For this testing process I ignored the Y1 swords Quickfang and Crown-Splitter, since being limited to just one perk is, well, limiting.
Aggressive Frames have increased damage per strike but lower swing speed and reserves. In the Aggressive Sword category, we have Crown-Splitter and its Y2 random roll clone Throne-Cleaver, both Titan exclusives, also earned from the Red War campaign and the Heroic Menagerie, respectively. Lightweight frame swords give a secret +20 mobility when equipped (just like all lightweight frame weapons), have increased reserves, and a faster swing speed. The lightweights are Quickfang and its Y2 random roll clone, Goldtusk, both Hunter exclusives, earned from completing the Red War campaign and the Heroic Menagerie, respectively. The outliers are the lightweights and aggressives. The vast majority of swords, including both exotics, are Adaptive Frame, so they have the same swing speed and the same base damage. In-game there are 3 sword archetypes: Lightweight Frame, Adaptive Frame, and Aggressive Frame. U/IAMADragonAMAA's excellent Damage Chart Madness as well as u/CourtRoom's fantastic Damage Catalogue, so big thanks to both of them. Much of my data comes from my own testing, but a great deal comes from Hello guardians, the Season of Swords is now a month in and I've had time to test and process some of the numbers, acquire the rolls I wanted to experiment with, and hopefully my findings can offer concrete info about using swords after their major changes.
