the game calculates if you proc or not proc first THEN it calculates out of all your damage types which one it will proc, so u only a chance to proc a single status effect which is then rolled for RNG style among all your damage types

the higher the damage type quantity the higher the chance of that proc

this means the less damage types you have on a weapon the stronger the chance of the proc effect you want

for this reason weapons like the lanka have the most focused proc ability as it only has electricity as a singlar base damage with a very high proc chance

guns with 3 different base damage types, plus 2 different combined damage types will have to roll from all 5 types with the strongest being the most common to proc

this is why on your high radiation/viral weapon sometimes you get unwanted impact or slash procs
