Shard of Ironwood Resin. Is a craft mod used to make a perk called "Poisoning" which makes poisons you apply last 32% longer. It's only available on a ring slot.

Yea there's no exact perk but lets say with a Bleed perk with 10% of weapon damage applied by bleeds, means by upping your Dexterity/Strength you are increasing your damage per tick. Your attributes only matter in this case.

Understood? just up your dexterity or strength attributes to increase dot damage. Simple HF :)

FYI for other types of dots like arcane, fire, ice, you would need intelligence or focus upped to increase damage per tick.

What he means by elemental damage is the attunement perks. So you would want nature attunement for the poison shot ability. This is for anyone reading this thread. Also, nature damage perk on ring slot.

Amazon spoke about this DOT gameplay in a previous campfire talk.
The reason they have not added actual damage modifier increases to DOT is simply because there is only 1 solid mitigation for which then has to be mandatory , introducing an entire new "effect" or in this way DOT type of gameplay which butchers almost all builds as vigor would be the key perk to have to reduce bleeds etc. this would have been too dominant and therefor they have not touched on those grounds yet. however i did read they are adding this in a future DLC. i will link the video / post here if i find it again but it's been over a year ago.
But the minor changes they talked about a while back consists of stacking bleed 5x like smolder etc etc but balancing out the DOT.
so in the end even if they do add this DOT mechanic where you can increase the dmg of DOT it will probably still be nerfed as hell on launch
