It garantees one of four per hit, and you can change between them at will. Basicly you can add 4 different statuses with 4 shots if you want. It's true that it isn't magical alone, but combined with a Boar Prime or other statusweapon it makes you able to reach 9 different status procs in short order. CO scales exponentialy so that is a big boost over the normal 5 from most status weapons or 7-8 from two.

Also, Lone Tenno above, for making the most of CO toxin procs do NOT stack. CO increases damage with every DIFFERENT status effect.

That is why this synergizes well with a CO build. It doesn't help much on hordes but tough single targets stand no chance.
