When there are enough targets, and if you don't have Convert, you can Triple Cast Fire II - Flare - Flare - Transpose for some free damage. Since you can only triple/quad flare by using items and/or convert. Thing is, Fire II might have low potency, but it doesn't diminish at all so if you can get in more AoEs before you have to transpose back to Ice, you can frontload a little more damage. Also considering squeezing it in before the flares doesn't really cost a thing, since one Umbral Heart won't steal a Flare from you.
