What kind of weapon is best? Fire poison or bleeding?

I tend to go with fire, since its damage is contant, and can quickly spread to other enemies, and even the whole area, quickly distracting and killing a whole bunch of enemies.

I actually prefer poison. Poison also spreads to other enemies, just like fire, but you cant get hurt by your own poison.

i have fire arrows and sword + poison shield , nothing can beat this combination lol

I went with fire, but mainly because I'd get more fire weapons than anything else of the negative status effect weapons.

Besides, fire spreading is cool.

Fire is the best .
.. it can give panic to enemies making them open for attacks

The best is actually Health per Kill perk. One can kill gods with these weapons

So each of the perks can inflict damage over time. Fire can have some pretty advantageous spreading effects if NPC's are near hay piles or small reed structures and even scaring/distracting enemies thus providing gaps in their defense. Though enemies put out the fire on themselves while standing or by going into a body of water.

Poison is great at spreading amongst enemies even from corpse to passerby enemies though like fire the effect can wear off (but only on its own, the enemy cannot do anything to stop the effects).

Bleeding is another damage over time than can interfere with the enemy's ability to attack and block intermittently and in my experience so far I have not found it to wear off and will always continue to affect enemies until they die.

My favorite setup includes weapons with combination of Bleeding and Poison, as it's more realistic than weilding weapons radiating Fire, and having the two paired, there's nothing the enemy can do to negate the damage inflicted. Bleeding and Poison also add immersion because, being a warrior, Bayek probably has knowledge of effective ways to maintain sharpened blades and even how to apply certain poisons to his weapons.
