After leveling to 50, I put a hold on making an alt until the first big path hoping for Legacy to be implemented. The minor description of what it will entail includes character customization, so I was hoping to have things unlocked for my next character when he/she was created. Since this hasn't been released, I made a BH and will just be rocking a helm.
My point is I am holding off making other alts, because I have no idea the kinds of things (other than some unlockable powers) that are in store for thise feature. A small overview or timeframe would be nice to help me decide when and where to begin the next adventure with my alts.
