Can anyone confirm if this is accurate? I've been banging my head against the wall trying to resolve this issue with the ESPtool not showing up as the programmer.

Yes ! As soon as "Board type" is selected to some ESP and the "Upload using" to "Serial", the uploading tool "esptool" will be the one executed.
(In other words, "Programmer" menu is ignored)

Is it enough to select the ESP8266 board, port? In this what is the programmer I need to use? The default? AVRISP mkII?


No need to select any "Programmer". Select correct ESP board, compile and upload, everything is taken care by the framework.
