pro tip #231 - the elite tenno files 

with point strike it only has a 37.5% crit chance, which is still rather low (even though it has that tempting x5.5 dmg with vital sense)

but with malignant force and high voltage it has a beautiful 78% status (just like lanka)

this makes status build superior to crit build

why ? because you will inflict status far more often than those amazingly strong but infrequent critical hits which means status is more efficient per shot than critical, you will trade potential damage for superior AOE and CC (gas/elec) or very lethal status like viral

gas if it procs does toxin damage, which is a excellent damage type which also bypasses shields, with latron prime it is possible to have 2000+dmg gas procs with chain lightining
