monk ascension

ok, well i was trying to ascend earlier today and the only guides i could find were for 55ers really (or ones that took a really long time) so i figured i'd post up what i used incase anyone wwanted to try it out

1. Scourge healing
2. Orison of healing
3. Symbol of wrath
4. Bane signet
5. Banish
6. Watchful spirit
7. Healing breeze
8. Retribution

Healing: 0
Smite: 11
divine: rest (think i had 3)

i was at level 14 so thats the best i could get for smite


ok, the first 2 skills i found in a guide so grats to whoever wrote that

to start with cast watchful spirit and retribution BEFORE you light up the 3 stones, let yourself get full energy and then go through to fight the doppleganger. As soon as you get there cast scourge healing and don't attack untill he has used bane signet. He should use bane sig and banish straight away, so use bane as soon as he has cast it and then banish, he should start to use watchful, but it doesnt matter about the +2hp regen, run up to him and cast symbol of wrath and then move away when he starts to cast it. use healing breeze as much as you can, and watchful spirit is only there incase you get low on hp (take it off to give around 60hp at my level), it's ok cause dopple never removes it. After this just keep casting banish and bane signet, and use scourge as much as possible. Whenever symbol of wrath is ready run to him and use it.

in my opinion it' best not to attack him with melee cause 1. he will damage you with retribution and 2. bane signet will knock you over.

just keep using this guide untill he dies, i think it took me a little over a minute

criticism is appreciated for this, not really experienced at this kinda thing :P

whats your 2nd prof?

I filled my first five slots with enchantments like Life Attunement and and Blessed Aura (can't remember right now what the others were). The last two slots were, in order, Banish and Healing Breeze (I cranked up Heal so that I'd have +9 in Healing Breeze and put the rest in Smite). I never used the enchantments on myself, just wanted the Doppelganger to degen his energy. I had Breeze on me only when he started to really injure me and I had him killed in a low enough amount of time to also get the bonus. Did it the first time through as well.
