righteous fire questions

Planning a build for new league and wondering if the Corruption and Dirty techniques and Entropy passive nodes boost the dps of rightous fire

Also wondering in the dirty techniques if the 25% chance to poison on hit against bleeding enemies would pop since righteous is a dot thanks

Burning, bleeding, poison are all examples of damage over time effects, and as such all will be boosted by nodes that increased DoT damage, such as Corruption, Dirty Techniques and Entropy that you listed.
However, the reverse is not true, that all DoT effects are bleed, poison, burn etc. Rather it's the exact opposite that any one DoT can only be one specific damage source. Same as Fireball and Fire Trap are both Fire, but all Fire is not Fire Trap.

Additionally, Dirty Techniques specifies that the bleeding target has to be hit in order for the posion to have a chance to apply. DoT effects themselves never do any hits. If you cast a Fireball at a zombie the Fireball will hit (unless it's a zombie with spell dodge) and the zombie might start burning but the burn does not do any hits. Same if you hit the zombie with Puncture that applies a bleed. The Puncture will hit but the bleed does not. If you hit the zombie again with Puncture while it's bleeding, Dirty Techniques would give a 25% chance to also poison it.
