You do need " somewhat" of a setup. The DD aspect of it all I get anything related to Damage. BUT, I always get a GLA/2~3 healers/ Rest DDs. If you don't have that Basic Formula, You will die @ a boss at the very least.
Just to add to what Star is saying, there is a basic formula but it is maleable. Anyone that tells you that only X party set up will work is simply parroting back what someone told him. It's not true to that degree. But, yes, you do need a certain distribution of healers if you want to succeed.
