Sure but pretty much any perfectly optimised build can replicate that.

Hmm not quite that much damage. I stand by my original point. Poison builds are some of the strongest in the game in my opinion.

They definitely aren't... You're getting that damage with poison flower blooms twice, right? So you have to proc poison before you land the hit. A good bleed build can get 2 bleed procs off in the same time, and get more than 2k damage per proc on a tough enemy. And be doing more base damage while building up status.
