trying to make the max number of alts here just seems more of a waste unless you need to have different races as well to fill out your mental landscape. in the end though, its all personal taste, its a game.... do what you want, not sure why you need guidance for what is ultimately personal preference on how YOU enjoy the game.
Well I'm gonna do my own thing of course! I just was wondering how the concept how 'one character can in theory do everything' approach was taken from an RP context. I wasn't sure if it was normal for someone to be like, "Hey, I'm a Miner! I'm also a Black Mage! In addition I'm a Ninja!" or not.

The answers provided have been very helpful in that regard and gives me a better idea on how to build characters! As mentioned, very different environment than in WoW!
