WW gives a bonus to Stamina Regen just for being one. Everything else related to WW only applies when they use the Ultimate and transform into beast mode. So basically all upside, no downside if you never bother with transforming.
Vampire comes with a Fire Resist debuff, meaning you take more damage from fire attacks, and that's all the time. Also your character's look is altered, a little in Stage 1 (when you've feed within the last 30 minutes) and a lot in Stage 4 (which is where a lot of Vamps sit because it reduces the cost of vamp abilities a lot).
