How good is Scathing mage for magicka necromancer?

[StArE]

I am currently using juilanos+mother's sorrow and Ilambris and getting good results from it but got few pieces of scathing mage while doing normal Imperial dungeon and the set bonuses looked good. so my question is whether i should switch it with julianos?
Current CP is 348.

Keep Julianos, you can get better sets on trials, sets like Siroria and False God.

Ok thanks, i haven't tried any trials yet and thought a dungeon set might help better than julianos but it's good to know that it wouldn't.

False God is the best option to replace Julianos. It is a better set overall. Normal Sunspire isn't hard, you can start doing trials no need to wait for more cp. Scathing Mage is hard to proc so you end up getting low uptime. It provides high uptime if you use Force Pulse but you don't want that on the class with the best spammable.

Yeah Julianos is a pretty good set if you don't have trial sets! Mother's Sorrow is still best in slot so keep that one!
