Not enough Health, you're dead with two conditions, and you get 2-shot by any DPS.

This is a Pistol/Pistol build with an Elixir sidefocus. What it does is give you decent baseline survivability (24k~ Health and 1500~ Toughness). Your weapon damage is decent, and you have extra condition damage. You have a solid enough critical strike chance to make all your passives trigger (chance to Bleed and Burn on critical hits from Traits). You have increased damage from boons (1% per boon), and this is compounded by the fact that you generally will try to engage using Elixir B; against any condition-heavy enemy, you can transform your conditions into boons, further increasing your efficiency while cleansing you.
This condition protection is also granted by the last Alchemy trait, which makes you immune to them below 25% HP, which is VERY interesting.
Your Runes grant you extra crit chance (quite a bit at that) and additional boons / condition protection. You might feel like this is overkill, but conditions are NOT to be underestimated. They chop at your health pool dramatically quickly and you SHOULD be scared of them.
Your damage output is a mix of power and condition damage, albeit more the former than the latter. It's fairly decent, but we can question the use of a Pistol in the off-hand instead of a Shield when faced with nasty Rangers and Thieves facerolling you to death. If you feel comfortable using double Pistol, though, keep in mind that your Blowtorch is TREMENDOUSLY stronger at point blank range, which you can then follow with a Glue Shot + Dodge/Elixir S away.
The Runes of Lyssa also make you a stronger point defender due to the fact that your Elite skill ALSO cleanses you and empowers you; therefore, you can likely delay (or take on!) two people more easily than you would otherwise. Nomnom.
For a more offensive build, consider using Elixir U instead of Elixir C; for a more defensive one, consider using Elixir R instead of Elixir C.
Done and done, and I'm out!
