I've only recently started to do the PvP in FFXIV but I'm having lots of fun. Some classes aren't as useful in the light party setup (1 tank, 1 ranged dps, 1 melee dps, 1 healer) which is what we get until 2.3 and Frontlines 8v8v8 16v16v16 or 24v24v24
From what I heard before they used to have it where there was no restricts and you'd have SMN and others that in a premade that would absolutely devastate another team. Some class/job abilities that normally work in PvE don't work in PvP.
Certain Class/Jobs are probably more desired than others for the utility they bring to the table. I'd say that atm Bards aren't one of those preferred ranged classes as they don't give things like sleeping targets or the absolute face melting dots that SMN have. But a sick BRD can really dish out the DPS and hurt >.<
