Another reason I tend not to use scathe is the mana used up by it tends to mess with my overall rotation, at least if I'm having to move while in astral fire, which can actually cause me to lose more dps than if I didn't use scathe.

About the only time I really use scathe, and I mostly do this while already in umbral ice, is when killing spumes(? whatever they're called) in Levi Ex while dodging Levi dashes and being slid around by him rocking the boat, since you can cast Scathe (and any Firestarter or Thundercloud procs) while sliding across deck.
