As for the application tier backup;
You should have a complete backup of apps Tier + you should backup the $COMMON_TOP/clone folder everytime you execute adpreclone.pl appsTier.
When you deploy any custom objects such as forms or reports, you should backup those as well. (such as a new custom form or report) so if it is the case, consider backing up $CUSTOM_TOP folder periodically as well.
Also you should take a new backup of complete apps Tier , after applying an Apps patch.
You should also consider backing up concurrent request and out files as they are created day by day
note: you can backup apps tier when the services are up & running. You can use tar,cp or any similar tool for backing up the files, you can use storage techniques (Storage snapshots etc..) (if they are available on your System) to backup your apps filesystem as well.
