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

[Q] When I restore a NAND backup, do I need to wipe anything?

When I restore a NAND backup via xrecovery, do I need to wipe anything?
Anyone? Cache or something?
No, you don't. Point of backup is to restore your phone in previous state, so it would be pointless to wipe anything after restore.

Yeah, thought of that, but I saw somewhere that you must still wipe cache or do a factory reset cuz you will bootloop. Thanks!

How to use nandroid restore?

I just installed MIUI and I didn't like it, how do I go restore to the backup I did with among RA 2.3? I only see. Img's when trying to restore and I get "oops" messages.
In recovery you go to nandroid backup/restore and choose restore and then the latest backup. Wipe cache and dalvik cache before and after the restore and you should be golden. As long as you're using the same recovery you made the backup with.
We're comin from a pure power source.
I needed to put the imgs on a folder so I cud flash, figured it out myself

You don't need to. You can just restore it.

Remove GAPPS

Hi,
could anyone please tell me the best way to remove all Google Apps? Wipe data/factory reset, clear cache and dalvik cache and format system partition? Or is it also possible with Titanium Backup? Thanks

Wipe data/factory reset and format /system is only way. Of course that wipes everything else too. You could backup data and apps and restore them later to get most back. But do not restore system apps or gapps will come back.
