Symbiote supreme abilities

symbiote supreme's in his set's fangs mode has a 100% chance to apply a bleed with the damage scaling depending on the current genetic potential.

but in a fight if symbiote supreme has 0 genetic potential and he is in set's fangs there is no indication of a bleed being applied

is there not supposed to be a indicator for the bleeds being applied?
Also when symbiote supreme is in the Null's shadow i noticed in a fight that the stagger from a well-timed block did not apply.

-100% chance to cause a Bleed Debuff on every Hit, dealing up to 928.2 Direct Damage based on Genetic Potential and lasting 8 seconds.
according to this, genetic potential has nothing to do with him actually placing a bleed on the opponent. genetic potential indicated the amount of direct damage it does.
it says 100% chance to cause a bleed debuff on every hit. so if genetic potential is at 0, then according to this...an 8 second bleed doing 0 direct damage total should be applied.
while the damage is 0, the actual debuff being placed has implications if you have points in the despair mastery.
