Ok several times tonight in WvWvW I popped Elixer B as a Thief started to hit me and it did nothing at all. Just wondering if there is a bug or am I just not reading the tooltip correctly. It does no noticeable damage to the other person.

quite usefull if you can maximize the boon duration. You can actually have perma swiftness, fury, retaliation using this trait with the actual Elixir B skill. But it does not make you invincible.

you need to max boon duration
%20 : Alchemy at 20 trait point
%15: 2 superior rune of water
%20: Potent Elixir trait
%20: Chocolate Omnomberry Cream
You get fast elixir trait too to decrease CD of elixir B to 32s
You will have about 22-23s of swiftness-fury-retaliation when you use elixir B.
When you are in a fight and your health decrease to %75 then you will get elixir B with the increased boon duration like the actual skilll.
You can have these boons permanently during a fight, with good timing of course.

Also you have to understand and appreciate the functionality of ‘Retaliation’ — see
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Retaliation

The current understanding is that despite the tooltip description of the boon, it only returns a flat amount of damage to the attacker, based off your own Power stat. Reflection itself is a much more common function within the Mesmer profession.

Retal also scales with +% dmg effects.

the 5 points in alchemy work for me. Always getting it.
Didn’t know there was a bug for some, or is there?

I can say it does not work all the time. As we have many bugs this affect do not trigger everytime and you may fall to the mercy of bugmonster. Even sometimes you can get the boons but can’t have the effect (try with swiftness)
