Poison UI bug?
So I read around a bit and to my understand poison, bleed and other such dots don't stack, it'll simply apply the highest damage one. Lets say I had;

15 poison from weapon
25 poison from skill
30 poison from artifact

The weapon and skill poison would basically be pointless, because it'd only apply the artifact poison?

If so, is the games damage estimate on your character page bugged then, cause it shoots up your damage from adding more poison sources even if they don't actually help you any?

That's not true, DoTs from different sources stack (and DoTs from the same source don't) , if they didn't then there wouldn't ever be any variety in what DoT skill you use because only one of them would simply be the best, which isn't the case

- Poison dmg from weapon and any skils, relics/charms, gears which add bonus poison dmg for weapon attack stack.
+ E.g: poison dmg on weapon stacks with poison dmg from relic/charm you add into that weapon, stacks with bonus flat poison dmg from gears, artifacts, or items that have grant skill add bonus poison dmg (like Lindane sword).
- Weapon's Poison dmg doesn't stacks with poison dmg from skill that deal poison dmg (which doesn't add bonus flat poison dmg into weapon attacks).
+ E.g: Poison dmg on weapon attacks doesn't stack with poison dmg of Earthbind or Plague skill.
- Poison dmg on two weapon (when you dualwield or swap weapon while attacking enemies) don't stack; stronger Poison dmg will work at the moment.

- Other DoT types do the same as Poison Dot about stack or not stack.

Simple answer is:
there is difference between dealing dmg with a spell and weapon (casting vs. attack speed skills)
- all dmg,effect,debuff stack on your weapon [ all gear slots except shield and all skills either passive or active based on attack speed ] ... exeptions are 3 -> in-between dual weapons(can not stack) and primary weapon toward a shield attack(can stack) and throwing knives (spell) stack with all non-weapon ( including shield) gear slots.

Shield be counts as weapon, RR or %ADctH on shield doesn't stack with weapon or Thowing Knives, Blade Barrier skill.

well yes, i said that part the wrong way, yes absolutely shields are weapons by themselves. you just can´t take anything offensive from them to your primary weapon, that´s what i meant.

Other effect on shield still works (like add flat retaliation dmg, +%dmg type, % to procs .., +Flat & % OA,..).

- what you have mention are not what i was reffering, i was talking about everything offensive that actually require your weapon attack directly... those are your damage types (flat including adcth), effects (stun,freeze...) and debuffs(reductions oa-da, slow, resistences,armor) - all in a non-retaliation form

Now you people see why I was confused AF after having tried to read it up myself first >>;;;

This has always been a problem with TQ. I have a feeling that the game itself tends to skip some damage at times... IHMO any and all dam should always be stacked this way one doesn't need a degree in advanced math to know how much damage you're doing :-D
