Using Ascension + Tactics is not a good idea if you're creating a fresh character or party and going straight to ToB, skipping SoA. Pretty sure the ToB stuff for those assumes that you already finished SoA and aren't just using the few trinkets you start with fresh in ToB. I've tried the opening fight with a fresh party and with a fresh solo character and it's not pretty. I found it very hard for the party and absolutely impossible for the solo character.
