Booster items don't count for the purposes of magic duel.

What about communions, and astral enhancing spells, like power of the spheres

Re: Wishing for an SC?
 

nope

spells don't even enhance the amount of gems you can spend.

Communions don't, but astral-enhancing spells do.

qm should rule in, but i think that is a not true thing said there.

About Seraphs here is a basic one, total cost of 180 gems ( 100 wish, 15 GoR, 65 equipment ):

Here is one that I empowered 1 level of astral and then wished for power, total gems 355, so aproximatly x2. I wonder if this is worth 2 of the above?

Hmm... I am not seeing the images. Any idea what is wrong with my image tag?

try using html, otherwise dunno

Okay, I just checked. An S8 Titan boosted to S10 with Light of the Northern Star and Power of the Spheres used 10 pearls to cast Master Enslave (ending with 200 fatigue). Spell boosters enhance the number of gems you can use.

In fact, I'm not even sure that it's correct that communions don't enhance the number of gems you can use. Why do people talk about using 32-communicant Communions to cast Master Enslave with S2 casters if S2 casters are still limited to 2 gems? However, I have little firsthand experience with Communions so I've never tested this myself. My comment above should have been "Perhaps communions don't..."

regarding the images that huzzurdadi posted. I noted that hydra skin armor grants more protection (22) that it claims (10?), and that happened with other armors like the 5-gem blacksteel armor giving the protection of the full version 10gem one.
No, no natural protection as I seen that on humans wearing them.

Re: Wishing for an SC?
 

The image shows a seraph which have a basic protection of 14. The hydra skin armor works correct, i use the very often and on a (human) scout for example it has 11 protection like the description of the armor says.
