I've played the warrior and tbh I love using range weapons with it compared melees :\ Longbow + Rifle epic on W3

The elementalist on the otherhand, have epic spells and what not. It depends highly on what gameplay you want you can be upclose as an elementalist too but you have to use a dagger.

IMO eventhough I havent played Elementalist, it's more funner to play compared to warriors. Mainly because they need to buff melee attacks, more like a suicide evbery time I tried using Greatsword on W3 :( hope they did alot changes for BWE3

Elementalist have more skills than any other class, so i really like the versatility and the utility from an Elementalist.

Not really Elementalist are only limited for weapons but they have 4 elements to play with. On the other hand Warrior is the most diverse class and can pretty much use every weapons ( 4 two hand, 3 main hand, 5 off hand, 2 aquatic resulting in 19 combinations said the wiki)

quick fact: elementalist doesn't have the quick swap like the other classes while in combat.

(Correct me if Im wrong)

I'm gonna try out all the classes in the next (and final) beta test coming on the 20th. I have a feeling I'll like the Warrior the most since they can use freaking blunderbusses :P

Warriors are awesome specially with 2 handed hammer :P

Going to try out a Ranger for BWE3 was looking to try Thief but I heard it got nerfed alot because of their burst damage xD

I can't choose between any RACE or any CLASS :( :( :( I thought I would love the Charr, but after playing 2 Betas I just don't like how they move or their starting area. I also thought Necromancer would be an obvious choice for me, but I just can't get into him. :( :( :(

Think my main will be a warrior. I played one in the last beta and it was really fun, so for now I Think I will stick with it.

No they dont have quick swapping of weapons, but the 4 elements change every skills they have. Elementalists still have more skills than any other class:

i usually play rogue-like cIasses, and the warrior is my second favorite. he's pretty fast and agile and powerful. meanwhile the ele is a ton of fun to play because of how badass the skills look like. you feel like a powerful wizard.

You can swap elements but not weapons. Same affect though for the most part.

I tried every class so far and will def be rolling an elementalist on release. Was the most fun for me.
