A spell may be altered with Magic Boosting to create a new spell. When a spell is altered in this way, it must be treated like a new spell to be learned, with a new cost as described below. Some abilities may change the cost and time of learning boosted spells and some facets may be able to cast boosted spells without having to learn them. Altering a spell with Magic Boosting changes both the MP cost of the spell and the listed dollar Cost of the spell.
Apply the costs of each boost function one at a time, rounding up to the next nearest whole number each time. Each time a boost is applied to a spell (other than the one that changes the difficulty), the difficulty raises by 1. A boost function cannot be applied unless the spell's parameters meet the condition of the specified boost; subsequent boosts may have to be applied separately. Apply damage boosts before any other boosts.
Take note that a different order in which you apply boosts may significantly alter the final cost of a boosted spell. It is up to you to choose the most beneficial order when applying spell boost costs, so long as you raise damage first.
Spells with an MP cost of 1 or less cannot be boosted. Spells with multiple, different damage dice cannot be damage-boosted.

Area(When the area of a spell is modified using the 5'x5'x5' cube rules, the area it hits is determined when the modified spell is created, not when it is cast. If the spell previously hit one or more targets rather than having an area of effect, a spell modified this way will only hit a number of targets within its area equal to its original targets number unless the "All in Area" or "All but self in area" boosts are purchased)
