Pretty much works like a shotgun, but I don't think going 100% status is worth it if you have to run all 4 60% element/status mods for it. Yes, you get a constant stream of procs, but blast makes it more difficult to hit heads. That said, it does allow you to instantly trip everything in front of you, which has its own benefits. 3 60% mods and nano-applicator means you get more corrosive procs (since it has a higher damage value than the other element), but that only really works with frames that cast a ton. If you don't want to run either, you can run 3 60% status mods and fill the other remaining slot with whatever you like (I'd recommend vigilante mods, if you haven't already put crit mods on the build).

The best you can get is basically a riven with 120%+ status chance and two 60% mods for either corrosive or gas. This means you'll basically be proccing either element constantly alongside occasional viral procs. The result is basically a status Kohm but with the ability to focus damage, as well as a somewhat better ammo economy, and it's absolutely disgusting how easily it deals with enemies.
