Spells that scale well with faster casting?

The "spells repeat" property is a drawback of echo just as the corresponding property on Multistrike. It does not matter on already fast spells (e.g. incinerate) but would be annoying on slow spells (e.g. EK), where you have to wait for both casts to finish.

It does not seem as drastic as multistrike. Maybe the spells I've tried aren't slow enough or I have too much cast speed from the tree. With multistrike I find it to be almost suicidal to not have Faster Attacks as well.

My EK cast speed was .43 before the patch and .21 after the patch with echo. In what way does the repeat slow EK down?

That's because Ethereal Knives casts faster post patch, I think .8 seconds vs 1 second.
If you compare post patch Ethereal Knives with and without Echo, you will notice you stay in one place slightly longer. Echo is only a possible concern for slower caster spells. Mainly the 1 second to cast spells.
