If you can't connect to pso2.jp without a proxy, then yes, you will likely need the Telepipe proxy or a VPN; if you can connect to pso2.jp with no issue, then you won't need any proxy or VPN at all.
Use the new English Patch as it encompasses the normal, large, and story patches, doesn't modify any files directly (thus it causes less, if any, issues with Gameguard), and is being updated regularly.
For some people it is hit or miss as to whether or not it redownloads a large amount of files when updating, but for others it is a non-issue. If it does happen and you need a proxy/VPN to connect, that's just your lot in life; if it happens but you don't need a proxy/VPN then you can just use the official launcher to update the game, then in the Tweaker go to "Tweaker Settings" and hit "PSO2 version" to disable the update prompt.
