Can two elemental effecs be proc'ed at the same time?

Just wondering... if they can I'm thinking about doing a nasty spectral nova procing build for my marksman.

you may only see the gfx of one, but at the top you will see all the effects on the monster.

Sweet, I've got all the penetration I need on my gear so I'm going to fill my Lees with ignite and phase nova procs.

Does anyone have any info on the strength and damage of the nova procs? Like are they useless compared to just a little bit of phase added to the weapon itself?

I wonder which would be stronger for damage and phase effects; like 30-40% spectral damage with a couple hundred phase strength, or like 20% spectral nova procs.

This would be on a Lee's, so very high rate of fire.

Novas are very effective, give shrapnel mods a try too, they kill very well when they proc.
I wouldn't bother socketing a lee's with nova mods though, I'd rather go with an 8 mod gun to make the most out of them.

I think the procs are underrated tbh. But I have no clue where the dividing line would be.

Procs would be better against multiple targets, straight damage would be better against single targets.

I was thinking on a per monster basis. Meaning how much phase att str is equal to a spectral nova?

I don't think novas have any attack strength unless they're already on the weapon. I could very well be wrong though, I just never saw an enemy ignited or phased when I had nova mods on my thorn bolters.
