I think FFXIV offers you another way to view a character, the fact that you can have all the classes available with some xClass skills too.
So I would say that you come up with a concept that you want, then see how it fits against what is available. From the specialist scholar who has really gotten to the top of that profession, down to the jack of all trades that has a bit of each.Â
Remember the difference comes from your RP not the game skills the toon has. You decide how this goes, what level of skill etc..
With that said, my approach was to RP Nebula through that base level competency and some strengths. Her main path was Archer > Bard > Healer, such that now she is a Hedge Witch doing alternative healing, but is still handy with a bow. On her way she was forced to learn the basics of the other forms of magic and combat, she will never be the Black Mage or even Conjurer, she is a Witch with her own RP wrap. Crafting wise she can't cook and has some basics in Wood/BTN from her archer days, Gems is where she has focused and the closest I got to this was Goldsmith.
Hope that helps.
