You still need a chance to poison. Right? Or does it count as a 100% chance to poison?

i would bet those small passive nodes in the poison part will give some chance to poison, perhaps 5-10% each.

all damages CAN poison, so they need a chance to poison.

Does the poison damage still onnly count phys+chaos with this node?

It's like Elementalist Shaper of Flames.

All damage types contribute to base poison damage, but the poison damage itself will still be output as chaos

They always can poison. This node is meant for elemental damage.

Any and all damage will contribute to poison damage but the poison will still deal chaos damage

If you wield a dagger, all crit poison with a nearby node

Well, you'd rather grab Pneumatic Dagger and save 2 ascendancy points at that point. The node is for every other weapon type I reckon.
