The general composition most Warbands aim for is 2-2-2, which means:

2 Tanks
2 DPS
2 Heals

Per party.

In most cases, the 2 tanks are guarding the two frontline DPS, and can swap those guards around as needed if a healer gets pressured or focused.

You can win without this composition, and many pugbands (and even guild warbands) often do have to stretch comp a bit to adapt to whatever classes are available at the moment. Hope this helps!

In many cases, yes, but you can use Range DPS too if you prefer or if that's all you have available.

Many range DPS classes (like Shadow Warrior or Squig Herder, as an example) also have Warband-specs where they can play closer to/on the frontline, and they both benefit a lot from getting guarded in those builds.

There are also entire warbands sometimes of people who play one class (like Bitterstone's Engi Warbands) where they'll set up in a roost and snipe targets down one at a time. So it really depends on the situation / how you want to play, but having a decent frontline will give you the most flexibility!
