The big 3 are calc, alk and mag. I would only start dosing when water changes are not keeping up with the consumption of these.

I agree that a dosing pump is best used for calcium and alkalinity. Magnesium is more hit-or-miss as to whether your tank will need it. A 2-part is a fine way to get going. Products like B-Ionic are fine, and there are DIY recipes, too.
