    I mean I guess it does, but one generally thinks of moving away and dispersing.

    This is what I thought as well originally but there were instances where it was clearly not the case for me. "Scatter" is an odd term for "Acceleration bomb".

    From my experience going in a ninja and astro .... casting or using a skill doesn't seem to count against me. Maybe I am just lucky, but after 10+ runs, I have yet to run into it.

    I run almost exclusively on AST or SCH, and casting does count against you if you get Scatter and it’s the demon face. The idea is to stand completely still if the boss is lying, and to not stand still if he’s telling the truth. “Scatter” is probably very bad wording on the devs’ part.

    I guess I have just been lucky then. I will look at it next time I run Rabanasty.
