Poison and bleed are easily countered. It may seem like they're very important, but the main places bleeding is a risk is the lower undead burg and Priscilla. Two places that you can easily avoid attacks. Simply blocking an attack will give better defense to bleed.

For poison, in PVE, it's only prevalent in Blighttown and VS the infested barbarians. A quick purple moss will cure it. Same for PVP, and your enemy stops using poison once they see you use a moss.
