Make it Sparkle and More Pep

So i noticed Deathtrap can cause DoT effects when buffed by Make it Sparkle (tho I sware people use to say he just did damage of that type and couldn’t dot enemies) and I am wondering if More Pep or anything else can apply to increase the changes of Deathtrap causing Elemental effects.

I’m already usinf Robot Rampage which seems to more often then not affict everything in range but it has a 15 to 20 second CD if I am correct. Any way people know that will help my Deathtrap be a DoTing machine?

PS what would the DoTs damage be based on?

DoT DT would be good with a spike shield - preferably an Antagonist or Impaler. Actually, if you have Sharing is Caring, may want to check what type of shield you already have equipped since that would complicate determining if the DoT really was from Make it Sparkle or not.

I think DoT would be based off initial damage if it was proccing from the elemental melee hit?

More Pep, atleast in my book, only has use for Interspersed Outburst since the former directly affects the proc chance of the latter. But outside that the calculations are to low to be of actual use.

I know the elemental damage is roughly 60% of DTs base Melee damage added on top of it. So 160% damage delt as said type. So is the elemental damage separate from his normal melee damage or am I miss understanding and what it means is the formula counts elemental damage and elemental bonus damage before other melee buffs making the buffs from Strength of 5 and Made of Sturner less significant then they appear?

Getting a bit off topic but it seems to work wonders with any slage element grenade mode especially magic missles as usually the blasts happen in a sequence rather then simultaneously so if the first one slages the fallowing blastes do even more damage.
