IIRC, firerate doesn't actually increase status chance on continuos weapons; status chance is per-second, so wether you're burning 10 amm per second or 20, you still have the same chance to proc each second.

However, firerate is very useful for damage purposes; it's another damage-per-second multiplier, but at the cost of ammo effeciency (both because damage per round is lower since you have less damage mods, and you burn ammo faster) On the Quanta, though, with such low ammo consumption, building fire-rate is a great way to get more damage from the beam.
