I've asked some people and looked around in the forums and the normal explain was 'Poison support scales better than consuming dark.' and that makes no sense because poison = % of phys + % of chaos damage and what I get was getting smaller dot 1200 avg dmg tooltip than dot on 950 avg dmg tooltip. Enemies can be hit multiple times where these overlap. If I hit monster for 50% of his HP the dot will get it to 48-49%.

The avg.dmg on my tooltip on Bladefall was 950 with poison support. Bladefall Spell Cascade Support I crafted a dagger with gems are supported with spell cascade, so you can squeeze another gem in it. The build was doing awesome until I've decided to switch Poison support gem for Consuming Dark with the idea I will run Herald of Ash for a bit fire damage the will be converted to chaos and my poison damage will stack mostly from the physical damage of the skill.
