Both take a bit more time to learn to play (good).
But i would say Mesmer.

Both have very different play styles and are both fun. However, I like Elementalist more

That’s very subjective.

It is my opinion that both are very fun to play. I don’t know what I can offer you with respect to “funnest” that wouldn’t just be my opinion, but perhaps if you had some thoughts about what things might be more appealing to you in playing a character the forum community could help you better.

It seems to be the meta for mesmers to have an easier time finding dungeon groups, if that might influence your choice at all.

Well I want to know which class I won’t get bored of in your opinions. I do have a level 5 mesmer, but it doesn’t look like I do any damage. I also made an ele long time ago when I first started playing, but I only played it until level 36 and deleted it. So I don’t really remember how the ele was.

You chose two of my favourite classes, I’d say go with mesmer if you want more relevance in dungeon runs (or high level farming), while elementalists have, in my opinion, more playstyle options. Both have great utility and fun value, however.

Mesmer has far more power in a solo context, elementalists have more combo options. Mesmers however also have additional mechanics capabilities due to blink and portal. These have helped me carry people with zero jump quest ability across otherwise impossible areas in parties before.

My dream group in a dungeon is generally 1 ranger (for healing) 1 guardian (tanking) 1 thief (dps/stealth) 1 mesmer (cc/portal/blink/dps/stealth/timewarp) 1 warrior (banners/dps/secondary tank).

Attempting to do a Dredge Fractal without a single mesmer, for one, may prove to be very, very difficult.
