Talents:
I had a +10 Vampiric Katana, which was doing real work with the +5 Ring of Arcana.
During the run I found and ID'd a Grim weapon and Ring of Haste plus a bunch more. (Scroll of Divination is great for "finding" all rings for Trinity.)
I was using Grim for the entire ascent, one-shotting almost everything. First blind them, and then when they step into range, you get a guarenteed hit. That was killing almost everything with Grim. With Ring of Energy +4, I never once ran out of armor energy. The Heroic Energy talent was also key.
When I had to fight a scorpion, I could activate Spirit Form for Ring of Haste and chase them down with ease.
It was honestly one of the easiest ascents I've ever had. The flexibility of Trinity is really cool.
During the descent, I used it a bunch for thrown weapons to soften up blind enemies from a distance since I ran out during the run.
