What does +1 Ascension mean on Quick Ascension

clicker-heroes

In Clicker Heroes, the Shop allows a player to buy Quick Ascension for 50 rubies. The button for this option says X Souls, +1 Ascension. What does +1 Ascension mean?

The popup help text does not give any further information on this. As the primary focus of this shop option is granting of immediate souls, does the +1 Ascension refer to a bonus soul when the player uses the normal ascension? Does it refer to an immediate bonus, or does this refer to something else, such as increasing the total number of times a player can use the normal ascension?

Best Answer

To add more clarity.

You don't actually ascend, you just receive the designated ammount of hero souls (It is based on your maximum level achieved and can be increased by the ancient Solomon) and +1 on the ascension counter.

You don't receive the hero souls that are on the "Ascend for +XXX". For that you really need to ascend using Amenhotep.
