EDIT: Looking for some input on how to put out more damage

So, i’ve done some fractals, and most of the current dungeon paths on exp mode and done pretty well. I run in full Berserker armor/trinkets/weapons, this is my build.

I run with a Superior Rune of Blood for the added Lifesteal on crit, Omnomberry Pie for some amazing healing on crit (1-2 pistol whips can fully heal me), and Signet of Malice. These 3 things are my primary defense, as I can heal through most damage while spamming pistol whip.

My Pistol Whips are hitting for about 9k, with spikes up to 12k when my group grants me some might stacks (I run with a Guardian and Warrior who both toss out a lot of might stacks, I usually sit around 5 stacks and can spike up to 15 stacks.

While I do get Downed from time to time the evade and interrupt from Pistol Whip along with some well timed Dodge rolls keep me alive quite well. This along with the massive amount of self heals I get from my list above. I feel like I am doing decent damage but just wanted to get some feedback from the Thief community to see if I can do anything else. I have tried a heavy condition bleed build with D/D but the damage was very lackluster, though the survivability was amazing (Death Blossom ftw!). I would also consider a backstab build, but always felt it was more of a burst build to be used in PvP or WvW, which I do not really do.
