Has any one ever made a bleed, poison, ignite build and is it not completely weak? DoT applies to all three status and applying the status's is really easy now with certain ascendancys and new uniques.

I love to experiment but I end up burning allot of currency doing so. Doesn't hurt to ask around.

Haven't tested, but i'd imagine it would be hard to incorporate all three because of very different base damage scaling.

If you wan't three damage sources, maybe go with frontloaded damage, and 2 dots, scaling generic damage.

Just a few ideas:

Bleed poison with fat phys base, or burn poison with fat fire base and % elemental added as chaos damage from items or i.e. trickster passive.


I'd maybe go with scaling minion damage with new Spiritual Aid passive, because it's generic damage, so would apply to frontload and all types of dots.


Also look out for items that give generic damage i.e.:
new staff Grey Spire gives up to 300% generic damage,
Cyclopean Coil also gives generic damage, etc

Bleed scales off phys so its pretty hard, fire + poison vokuurs is good.

Tested some years ago bleed bow gravi gladiator before brutality gem. Was fun and decent clearspeed at low maps. Dunno how could it be now and include burn and psn to it. Was also theorycrafting deathsoath rf build for dual dehen build some months ago

They all scale different things so every build is 100% better by just using one of them

If you want poison go pathfinder or assassin with toxic rain/Tornado shot/barrage + lioneyes glare/death's opus/quill rain
or Volkuurs+tempest/quill rain + abyssal jewel stacking

If you want ignite go elementalist with Burning arrow/scourge arrow + tempest, abyss jewels and stormfire


bleed just sucks ass in general (except for just bleed explosions from haemophilia gloves which are decent on some builds but even then you don't actually scale any bleed dmg)
