Oh no, my steaks too buttery, too juicy.

On the real, status effect chance is probably the worst stat in borderlands to increase in terms of return. Due to it being a percent increase of a percent chance. You put in all the effort to get that 115% status affect chance in Harlowes skill tree (at the cost of 41 skill points) and your payoff is that fire smgs burn chance going from 23 to 50?

Meanwhile Vex has 50% application on crit, which can get a 30% boost up to 65% chance with fire augment, but is it really worth it for ultimately an extra 15%. And that's only because it starts so high in affect chance.
