I run gas + electric for casual runs or against corpus. It's insanely effective against trash mobs but suffers from the same issues that gas always runs into against factions who aren't corpus.

That is, it doesn't do enough damage against grineer armor and is negated too easily by various kinds of infested ancients to be really reliable.

Most fun status combo though? Absolutely! Add it to one of your loadouts.

Hornet Strike, Perpetual Agony, Scorch, Stunning Speed, Barrel Diffusion, Pistol Pestillence, Jolt, Prime Heated Charge.

Status mods + Stunning speed gives you 100% proc chance before multishot. You can remove Perpetual Agony or Stunning Speed in exchange for more damage or quality of life. Magnum Force is probably way better than Perpetual Agony because it increases the base damage on toxin ticks too, but I just enjoy seeing my gas procs last for ages.

Gas also takes toxin damage into consideration when calculating the ticks, so Primed heated charge could also be replaced with Pathogen Rounds. Not sure which is better overall tbh.
