Using extra gems to reduce fatigue

... I've never seen more than one gem used strictly for fatigue reduction, and also KO said "He will not use more gems then one to reduce fatigue":

Okay, thanks very much for checking! And sorry for the misinformation. 
Out of curiosity, what was the spell (and caster) where >1 extra gems were used? If an S5 caster (well, S4 boosted by a banner) carried 10 pearls, could he cast Solar Brilliance without getting super-fatigued?

Re: Using extra gems to reduce fatigue
I used an S6 starspawn to cast Will of the Fates (S4, 400 fatigue) and he burned 6 gems and landed at 82 fatigue in a neutral magic scale prov. 2 from his encumberance, so 80 from the spell. 80 is 1/5th of 400, so he cast it at an effective level of S8, so one level per extra pearl for fatigue purposes.

Re: Using extra gems to reduce fatigue
In the SC Arena Contest my mechanical man can be seen spending 3 gems for wrath of ancestors, which only requires 1 gem.

Re: Using extra gems to reduce fatigue
Thanks!
So, maybe commanders can potentially use as many gems as they have levels, plus one? Or, I wonder if an S5 caster could use 7 pearls to cast Will of the Fates.

No, commanders can never use more gems than their level.
