No it is not required because nandroid backup has everything, including cache and dalvik cache.

I am about to flash CloudyG3 1.3 on my G2. When wiping, do I wipe system too, or just data, cache and dalvik?

Which is essentially factory restore or the 1st screen in twrp when you click wipe.
Hi is there a way to clear dalvik/art cache without root via adb or any other means? Thank you
Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache and format /System
is necessary ""after""
or before ???
or both times when WE port the new rom ? ?
or why we do it if we not do it what happened?
When you decide to install a new ROM, then you have to do those wipes,
Cache and Dalvik Cache are related to every APK in the ROM, when you start boot the ROM for the first time, Dalvik cache indexes all APKs and cache it's dex files into the Cache partition, that happens only once, and you can actually see this when Android tells you it's "Optimizing Apps x of x",
So, what happens if installed a new ROM without wiping Cache and Dalvik Cache?,
Dalvik cache won't index the new APKs from the new ROM, and you'll end up having a ROM full of FC msgs,
So, that's why you need to wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache when you install a new ROM, before the ROM or after that won't matter, but don't boot up a new ROM without wiping those partitions.

I see dalvik / art cache and system, data
which one do I chose to clear system cache, without bricking my system?
You have only one option - dalvik.
Cache is old days from, it doesn't exist anymore on pies. If you try to wipe you'll get an error in TWRP.
System and data are speaking for themselves. Wipe system - brick phone, wipe data - loss of apps and personal stuff
