It depends, you only have to flash bootloader and modem when switching to or from marshmallow...

How to go back to Stock ROM (Lollipop) and stock recovery from CM 13 (TWRP recovery)?

Hello everyone,
As my thread title suggests, I'm looking for a method to revert back to stock rom and recovery on a zenfone 2 (ze551ml) that is currently running CM13 (6.0.1) with TWRP recovery.
I would really appreciate if you gave me some information on this.

Just use Asus Flash Tool to flash raw file, and it will also relock your bootloader

Can we use TWRP TO FLASH the official/original stock FW of zf2 (LP or MM)?
Flashtool=adb sideload?
Thanks.

I don't know but probably you could. But using AFT to flash won't take much time as you modify the ota package and flash, then reflash stock recovery in twrp. AFT will do it all for you.
RAW firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/z008-z00a-z00d-z00x-raw-fw-collection-t3448966
Flashtool is different from adb sideload. Flashtool = fastboot flashall abc.raw (maybe)

You don't have to worry about antirollback..
Your device will be bricked if you try to flash 9.5.17 or older version
But you can flash any MIUI ROM from 9.5.19 and newer
Antirollback doesn't apply to custom ROM
Just keep two things.
Flash latest Miui ROM
Flash custom recovery (first boot into recovery and then flash recovery from recovery)
Wipe everything
Flash custom ROM
Flash gapps
Thats all
Do not flash any older firmware. Your device will not be bricked a long as you are flashing latest available miui ROM

The issue is flashing Magisk at the same time as rom. Flash Rom, wait til it boots then go back to TWRP and flash Magisk and you will be OK

Want to flash miui pie fastboot ROM, need any precautions?

I want to flash latest miui pie fastboot ROM. Do I need any precautions, anything else to avoid brick and if I need to get back can I just flash miui Oreo roms?

Yes, same question.

No, you don't have to worry about anything as long as you are using official flashing method
Yes you can flash 10.2.2 fastboot ROM after flashing 9.3.28 android pie beta ROM
Use 9.3.28 fastboot ROM and flash it using MiFlash
