Alilatias, I have both sorceress classes and I think it depends on your playstyle which one you would prefer. Mystics can incapacitate large mobs with hitstun through toxic spray and triple orbs, as well as time stop and gravity crush. Time acceleration is a GODLY party skill, the damage is fairly high (not as high as elementalist) and getting high combos is really quite easy. For elementalists, the focus is on raw damage with stuff like fireball and inferno that do ridiculous damage (some people do 15k and up with fireball). I find myself dying a lot more on my elementalist because the blink skills are more offensive (a mystic gets a second shock wave for one of them, very handy), as well as the lack of long range attacks or teleport. Elementalists are amazing at soloing while mystics are highly sought out for in parties later on.
