You are right, every character can be everything. The 'problem' is that stats usually try to balance themselves; for example if you raise too much stamina (wearing heavy armors) your agility will go down after a while. The oposite also aplies, rise to much agility (by wearing light armor or no armor at all) and the stamina will go down after a few 'levels'. In other words is really easy to make a strong fighter or good mage, but it takes much more time having a character that stands out at everything because you have to waste time leveling everything.
As far as I fecall the easiest thing to increase was HP, lose something like 80% of your maximun hp and it will increase after a few battles, with magic also aplies but it's harder because you have to waste the mp with spells.
Be prepared, this game requiers a lot of leveling up, almost 70% or 80% of the game type is stat increase... It can still be fun though.
Put fighters on the front row, only bow users and magic users can attack from the back row.
Bug -> when you attack with a weapon and cancel the attack the weapon gets exps; so you can have infinite exp in one battle by doing this as long as you care (great for fighters). you need 99 swings for a level... Every character can do this except for the last one on your team (he can't cancel his actions).
See??? He is a God...

Are you playing the NES or the remake version (PSX, GBA)?
If you're playing the remake, now stats don't go down when leveling other stats, like in Toxico's example. Also, the glitch he's talking about won't probably be there, although I should have to check it.
I gave Frionel the role of the swordsman that uses shields and has some white & black magic knowledge, Guy is my Fist user and main white mage, and Maria is a Bow user with brutal black magic and basic white magic. Seriously, her magic packs a punch, she's really powerful.
