Status Effect

This page is in the reference to the Damage 2.0 system.

A Status Effect, or commonly called Proc (short for Programmed Random Occurrence), is an additional effect which may be triggered at random by a hit from a weapon, while Status Chance is the probability that a hit will inflict a Status Effect.

All damage types have a chance to inflict an associated status effect on a target. See the Damage 2.0 Overview Table for information on which status effects are associated with which damage types.

The chance that a proc will occur can be increased with mods such as Rifle Aptitude and also by any mods which increase the number of projectiles fired, such as Split Chamber. The likelihood that a proc will occur in a given time frame can naturally be increased by mods which increase a weapon's rate of fire.

For example, a weapon such as Ignis deals base elemental damage. In addition to its base damage, Ignis also has a 10% status chance (base) per second of continuous fire to proc a burning status effect, which has the visible effect of setting an enemy on fire and deals additional damage over time for the duration of the effect. Warframe abilities are exceptions, as they usually have a high chance to proc or in some cases, 100% chance to inflict the status effect (e.g. Frost's Ice Wave ability).

Enemies also possess the ability to inflict status effects on Tenno. For example, a Grineer Scorch has a chance to inflict the burning status effect (like Ignis does) and a Toxic Ancient can proc a poison damage over time associated with . Similarly, enemies are also able to inflict physical procs such as bleeding, which is associated with  damage, directly to the player's health (ignoring shields).

Status Chance for Multishot
While "Status" stat of a weapon in the arsenal is the probability that in any shot or strike with that weapon, weapons with multiple pellets in one shot (i.e. shotguns and weapons with multishot mods), this can be calculated using the following formula, which is also the one used by the arsenal:


 * Status Chance is the base status chance of the weapon with multishot capability.
 * Chance per Pellet refers to the status chance of each pellet, this value can be multiplicatively increased by Status Chance mods.
 * Number of Pellets refers to how much pellets or bullets were fired each time the trigger is pulled. This value can be increased via multishot mods. This value does not need to be a whole number; a weapon with 1.5 pellets per shot will shoot 1 pellet with a 50% chance per trigger of shooting an additional 1 pellet, which works consistently with the above formula.

When more than one status effect in different pellets of the same shot can have an effect (e.g. procs), it is more important to know the expected value of status effects per shot instead. This value can be determined with the following formula:


 * Status Triggered refers to the average number of status effects triggered per shot.
