Take a pure Fighter through Ascension? That would be a job and a half. You'd get bombarded by Magic, Ranged weapons, and some pretty darn good fighters. Then, you still have to kill the final boss. Sure, you could try and protect yourself as well as possible (with the Shield of Reflection, Cloak of Mirroring, and Hardiness), but eventually, it boils down to living long enough to damage them enough. Not to mention that on Insane, Sendai uses Time Stop -> Harm on you. How do you, save from using your precious Focus ability, stop that?

I consider myself to be an okay player, but I'm interested in learning how in the world other people would adapt their normal strategies to this.
