I saw ano use it to great affect by wishing for power with the casting mage (+2 each path).
Wish for magic power gives +1 to all paths. Another +1 was from Robe of the Magi. This spell in general has situational uses. For a huge poorly-sitesearched empire (like in the case sansanjuan mentions) it may be a very good spell because for the price of the spell + wish (140 S pearls in CBM) if you have a strong dominion, you will find something like 3-8 sites per turn in average. This will pay for itself very soon, especially considering the absence of gem generators and value of each gem. Also, it severely hurts any force that is trying to invade you.
