Weapon Damage + Elemental Damage

[(PSN)ViolentAggressor]

Ok, I have a question about elemental damage on a primary weapon. I am gonna use my favorite gun (Braton Prime) as an example. On my Braton P's build, I have the Wildfire mod on, which increases my mag size and adds Heat damage. Now, here is where I am confused. In my Braton P's case, that brings my Heat damage to 159.6. Does that damage affect every single bullet that is fired or does it only affect the damage when the Status activates.

Elemental damage is always applied regardless of status chance.  Status chance is the chance for a status effect, and there's puncture/impact/slash status effects too.

So, having the Wildfire mod on does increase my weapon's damage as well as set enemies on fire when the Status Effect activates?

Correct, though it could also apply an impact status (stagger/stun the enemy), slash (bleed), or puncture (cause them to do less damage for a few seconds).  Unfortunately you can't pick specific elementals or anything for status, the game will pick one itself each time.

Awesome. Thanks for the help.
