 * 1) That's Smith, not Darth. And OP specified no ms mods are being used.
 * 2) Smith is right, the status chance is split between the three base arrows, i.e. using all 4 dual stat mods gives each arrow either a 1/3 chance to proc or 34% chance. Either way, this means that you essentially only have a 70.4-71.3% chance for at least one proc to occur.
 * 3) Shotguns are different because the status chance the arsenal displays is not a simple sum of a projectiles' stat chances, such as the case with Cernos Prime. Shotgun status is a calculation of the effective status chance by factoring in the number of pellets and their individual stat chance. E.g. Take Boar Prime, which has a listed base status of 30% and 8 pellets. If it used the same mechanics as Cernos Prime then each pellet would simply have a 3.75% stat chance. However, this is not the case because when Boar Prime reaches 100% status before ms it's easy to see all 8 pellets proc 100% of the time. This means that unmodded each pellet actually has a 4.34% stat chance (30% total). With a single dual stat each pellet then increases to 7.85% (48%), two dual stats brings them up to 12.62% (66%), three gives 20.47% (84%), and four jumps them up to 100% (100%).
