Why do you want status when you'll kill everything with one shot? Later on when Opticor won't kill things in one shot, status is still not useful, because they'll die in two.

Status effect is only useful on weapons with a decent fire rate. Unless you're just doing something gimmicky or for fun, you're better off simply killing an enemy in one or two shots with snipers - this is why having high status chance on a sniper / bow is really pretty silly.

At the point you're reliant on a proc to kill an enemy in 2 shots, a pure damage build will always reliably kill in one shot. Plus, Opticor always staggers which is honestly the best proc you can have against heavies if you don't kill them in one shot.
