Can you comment on how to determine which indexes I should create

Which columns are most important ie when large values are reported,
these would make a wise index choice?

- "Times advised for query use"?

- "Most expensive query estimate"?

Too long since I have seen that stuff; given my amount of usage and familiarity with the feature. Sorry, but I pretty much just know intuitively what to do in most cases, so I tended not to [have to] use the tooling. There should be some presentations available on the web. I think mostly they start with getting the most-advised out of the way first, and then to concentrate on specific queries later.
