If you want a well balanced character, you should almost always play as a warrior until level 30-50 for a crap ton of extra health, the Attack bonus is only like 1 less than Assassin (The highest), then switch over to Mage/Sorc if you want magic, or Assassin (In my opinion) for melee.

I did this on my second actual game and loved playing warrior so much by level 50 (And the fact my gear saved up for my change to assassin wasn't anywhere near up to par) that I just stayed as a warrior, I did go ahead and grab Autonomy from the Assassin skills though, one of the best skills in the game really.
