do exhalted weapon attacks count for archon mod procs?

[Ocerkin]

for instance, archon flow says abilities that hits with cold damage have a chance of dropping energy orbs, if i build my exalted weapon with cold procs and hit the enemy, does that count as ability damage or weapon damage?

YES! If the damage is coming directly from a Warframe such as via exalted weapon it procs it. There is one exception and that is with Garuda's Talons with it only procing the heat and toxin status stuff not warframe ability stuff. Don't know about the archon shards and ability damage but I think it should work the same as with other ability stat buffs happening during channeled abilities.

Pusedo-exalteds don't work since the damage source is coming from your regular melee weapon and not the exalted weapon attached to the frame.

This is one of the more easier things to test out, slap on Cold/Electric mod and Archon flow. Slap enemies in Simulacrum until you get the red debuff indicator that archon flow/stretch procced.
