Want to make a new asuran character, ankittenorn between elementalist and mesmer.

Any thoughts or opinions on the classes and playstyles?

My 3 current toons are a defensive guardian, shortbow/Axe+torch ranger, and a DD / PD thief, if it makes any difference.

Mesmer all the way.

Is this based on my current character choices, or just your own personal preference?

Having played an ele…i’d advise against it. While the versatility is indeed fun…soloing areas like Orr is a nightmare no matter how u look at it.
Having seen a mesmer used very very well….go with mesmer. High damage and good survivability when ur clones are used well.
