For pvp and pve combine.

For desease - Velidreth,Maarselok,Lady Thorn and Thurvokun

For poison - Euphotic Gatekeeper and Spawn of Mephala

    i dont feel that euphotic gatekeeper is a good or useful monster set, too low dmg, far too long on cooldown

    spawn of mephala is not good for pvp, the aoe is too small and too easy to get out of

    velidreth is OK for both, same with maarselok (though most would say maarselok is OP for pvp)

    thurvokun is not really useful in pve because its extremely low dmg, and the debuffs dont do a lot in pve, not even that great for pvp anymore either with the cp2.0

    lady thorn i see as niche, works OK, but not really great

    im guessing you were only looking at the specific dmg types and not all monster sets? lol

    i have my main house (grand topal hideaway) listed in the housing tours, it has multiple target dummies, scribing altar, and grandmaster stations (in progress being filled out), as well as almost every antiquity furnishing on display to preview them

    feel free to stop by and use the facilities

    I'm building a poison build for dk and disease for necro so that was why I ask which is better because I never use them.

    for a dps spec, maarselok or velidreth would be decent, though if your going to put it on a necromancer maarselok would probably be better (due to necromancer getting a dmg buff on dots)

    neither of the poison ones are really great, euphotic gatekeeper is meant to be a more defensive one (you get a bonus when you dodge roll that absorbs projectiles if you stay in a 5 meter area and then it explodes), it only absorbs projectiles for 1 sec and has like a 20 sec cooldown

    spawn of mephala is OK, its not bad for PVE as it adds an extra bit of dot that can be up 100% of the time, but it will not work in pvp due to low dmg and enemies moving out of the area too easy

    so for both pvp and pve, none of the current poison dmg monster helms will really be ideal, mephala is OK for pve but thats about it
