That's an ongoing issue for some time, not just Bards, Paladins are left out most of the time unless it's for DF Dungeons.

There's this specific team setup that's the best combo and will leave others classes out, Bard and Paladin are pretty much left out these days, adding three new Jobs will make balance even harder.

I think every Job should have it's place at end-game raids, even if ti was a combo with other class not used, for example, right now is MCH, NIN and DRG.

Could work out with BRD, MNK and PLD setup, for example, because right now there's specific classes that are simply not taken into statics, MNK is only taken because it has the strongest single target DPS, otherwise would be left out as well, and with the upcoming Jobs i don't know how much this will change.

I really like my NIN since 2.4 and i don't want to be forced to another class in case one of the new DPS Jobs is better, i also like MNK which was my main since 2.0 but NIN is more useful than MNK for some time now, NIN and MNK combo also works.

I have a feeling Red Mage in case of being added, will be a must in Statics, mainly because it's new so they want people to have a reason to play it, i believe it will also be top contender in DPS along BLM and MNK.

But then we're at the same spot, specific Jobs are left out and people are forced to use another Job if they want to be the most effective in statics or even have a spot there, sure there's BRD in some Savage clears but it's not by far the most taken class.
