Status is general name for the mechanic. There are two parts that make up Status.

1) Status Chance: This is the percent value displaying in your Arsenal for each applicable weapon. It's exactly as it sounds too, the chance for that weapon to deal a Status Effect when damaging an enemy.

2) Status Effect: Each type of damage (e.g., , , etc.) has a unique effect that applies to the target when the Status Chance allows it.

For example, if I hit an enemy with 100 damage and 0% Status Chance, they all they do is take the 100 damage. However, if I have 50% Status Chance then there's now a 50% chance to activates 's Status Effect, which in this case is called Knockback. In this case the enemy not only takes the 100 damage, but they are also knockbacked and staggered for a couple of seconds.
