I've built less than 20 wheels so take my experience for what it's worth, but all of them have been assembled without a tensiometer and have remained true over time. I keep approximate track of how many turns of the wrench until final tensioning and constantly stress relieve the wheel by squeezing pairs of spokes.
I used Phils as spoke lube.
