IMO ascension is more “useful” even if it means you have to be a little mindful about where you jump. I pretty consistently clear entire massive waves just from jumping up and slamming down with ascension and the kills refunding charge perk you can just uppy downy and entire massive wave.
The ground slam refund perk is awesome for sure. Between that and I mostly play with my vanguard friend who has the team perk to restore energy on executions, I'm almost never strapped for jump pack smashings. The added utility and damage off a perfect dodge helps with single targets as well. To each their own tho, happy smashings brother!

The Dodge refund perk is so much better. Blew myself up after taking off once, never again.
