Generally, as a rule of thumb, the higher the base chance the better but you usually want an absolute minimum Status Chance of 20% to get up to 100+% after modding, though it is possible to get away with something as low a 10% Status Chance for a somewhat decent stat. chance after modding.

Personally I don't put stat. builds on weapons with a stat. chance lower than 20% as I find the amount of mods needed to get a decent stat. chance a nuisance and disadvantage. But as Mantuta said, it is all dependent on the weapon, your enemy, and your wanted effect on said enemy.
