Default Buffing holy power

It seems that the Crystal Shield does not work on people who have only holy power (it does buff holy power on mages who have other paths already). Is this a bug or WAD? I know there is an artifact or two, but is there any non-unique way to buff holy power on straight priests? You can't empower, you can't use a communion, there are no regular boosters...

What about Power of the Spheres? I don't know if it works on Holy.

Actually, you can kill your prophet off, if he's in the hall of fame, reanimate him (via ritual of rebirth), wait 12 turns, and prophetise him again. Rinse and repeat.

Swords of justice/injutice, but their unique.

Hell Power? Power of the spheres? Dunno.

In battle, you can use a communion on priest with astral or blood, it also boosts holy. I would expect that a crystal matrix works as well, but I've never tried it.

Crystal/slave matrix works, yes.

Valandil: Are you saying that if you reanimate a dead prophet he'll retain his H3 (or Hn+1) without being marked "prophet" anymore?

I have used astral army-wide magic boost spells for Broken Empire Ermor, to get their holy levels up to cast their higher-level holy spells. One of their core tricks, it seems to me.

Actually have Couatls got hands to carry a Crystal Shield? Hmm.

Well if not they can always do Power of the Spheres or communion.

They have astral magic, but no hands. Power of the spheres is easy for them though.
