Elemental Status Effects and Procs

I was searching about elemental status proc chance and i found it (patch 2.1):
Standardized the chance an ability has to apply a secondary effect, such as burning, chilled, or concussed. These chances are:
Weapon enchants 20%
Standard ability 10%
Area of effect abilities 5%
Damage over time abilities 3%
Area of effect damage over time abilities 1%
But i have a doubt, i didnt see anything about staves heavy and light attacks and when i tried them no procs happened. I think staves light and heavy attk dont proc elemental status, can anyone confirm ir for me? And explain me better? Pls

✭✭Light attack should proc status effects but heavy attacks are bugged. This should be fixed on the PTS so status effects will proc more reliably after the next patch.PC - EU (AD)Septimus Mezar - Altmer Sorcerer

Yeah i've done the same thing and ... no procs. I wanna know why, heavy and light attks are the base attks of the staves, but they cant proc status effects... no senseI've tested this on a practice skeleton for about 5-10 minutes straight and not a single status effect procced. I'd like to hear the reason behind light/heavy attacks unable to trigger status effects.0 -

IxskullzxI✭✭✭✭You're talking about just a light or heavy attack without an enchant, right? Maybe that's intended since there isn't a status effect for swords/bows?#HowDoYouLikeYourDK?1 -

Adding a status effect for every weapon's light/heavy attacks would be a good way to encourage newbies to learn about weavingIf you want me to reply to your comment type @Ankael07 in it.0 -

I could see physical damage having chance to proc small bleed dot. But then you would need to find something for magic damage too and I think the whole design of elemental (plus disease and poison) damage is to be above the basic (physical,magic) by having secondary effect0
