Gem boosting is when a mage in battle uses a gem to increase his path level by 1 for a spell or to reduce fatigue, e.g. an 1 mage can use a gem to cast Summon Earthpower , an 2 spell. A mage can only use as many gems in casting a spell as their path level, so this can prevent certain spells from being able to be gem boosted to due to their innate gem cost, e.g. Howl is 3 and costs 3
Communions are a common means to boost paths in combat but there are guides specific to that feature so it will not be delved into in depth here either.

MelficeBelmont's Boosting & Access Guide
This guide is significantly derived from the work of Telos’ guide for Dominions 4 path boosting which in turn has drawn upon Sector24’s guide for Dominions 3. That in turn was transcribed from occult ancient Sumerian stone carvings. Special thanks to Nunnullus and Althaea for additional suggestions and edits. Additional special thanks to youtuber Attica and their video Dominions 5 - Magic Path Boosting & Diversity Guide which talked about some stuff missed in v1 of this document. Red_Rob has written a similar guide for the game with the Dominions Enhanced mod.
For any typos or errors in path levels or gem values feel free to comment on the google doc. Anymore significant suggested alterations please submit via email at [email protected] or discord at MelficeBelmont#1431
What is and isn’t included
This guide is designed to point out the commonly available ways that magic paths can be boosted and suggest which ones are useful and viable. This means that using specific throne or site recruitment, national spells or items will not be discussed in this guide. Additionally, most things with less than a 10% chance of getting the paths needed will be skipped, since that list is rather extensive and getting them in a reasonable time frame is not guaranteed. Communions are a common means to boost paths in combat but there are guides specific to that feature so it will not be delved into in depth here either. Lastly, only relevant summons will be included so anything that requires a higher path access than it results in will be omitted.
