It may be due to the insane armor scalling of the game, since it lacks status (unmodded ~1% per pellet), you won't be able to remove armor effectively. Slash suffers heavy vs high armor in a sense.

But that being said, if the status chance is high enough to reliably prc slash like Tigris Prime or Dread, the proc damage ticks bypass armor.
