I don't usually care all that much about Dominion strength, but since I almost invariably take a master lich it's easy to boost up to 4-6. Almost never do 7+. If I were using a Dragon or something I'd probably stick to 3-5 but not below that. Basically, I'll almost never sacrifice more than 1 magic path tick or 1 scale tick for Dominion.

Note that, contrary to what the manual says, building more temples does NOT appear to increase your temple check percentage. That is, your dominion push will scale linearly with your temple of numbers and not quadratically. If this is altered in a future patch to conform to the manual (and the in-game numbers from right clicking on a temple) I would probably alter my strategy, since -1 to Dominion could be offset by investing an extra 2000 gold in temples (five temples = +10% to checks), making Dominion strength pretty much irrelevant to large empires (since it can't go above 10).
