Good day, I’m very sorry upfront if this topic or question is already discussed Could someone, please, explain to me how it works? If some troop creates 5 Green and 5 Red gems on cast. So with this nod, same troop will create 6 Green and 6 Red, right? If a troop creates 20 gem (a mixture of Blue and Skulls), so with nod it will create 21 mixed ones Also, how those nerfed pathfinders work with the nod? Again, creates 4 gems with that nod. And skulls - do skulls (any skulls, Uber, lesser, minor, major) count as gem? And wildcards? And in general - create + 1 and then boost or create and boost +1? Much appreciated in advance ---

> [@Stroganrog](#): > > If some troop creates 5 Green and 5 Red gems on cast. So with this nod, same troop will create 6 Green and 6 Red, right? Yes, exactly. Pathfinders will create their total gems based on how many of the same troop type you have and then the Astral Spire will add +1 coloured gem at the end on top of that. For example, your team combination creates a total of 12 red gems and if you have the gold node unlocked, you will get an additional +1 gem for a total of 13 red gems. Yes, skulls count as well. Any heroic gem including skulls count as a gem. Therefore this would affect troops like Stellarix most powerfully as it would cause Stellarix to loop very often. Here’s a screenshot and video showing this in action: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/c/3/c3923cfbb46ff7a7969cc5f3a85de742a908f9ef.jpeg) # Here’s a gif showing it in action: ![Stellarix gold node](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/6/6/66850555272cb34b4d1373fd0bdae4aaa7af02ef.gif) This makes the gold node very powerful especially when it makes Wand of Stars and Stellarix so much more effective. For your last question - the boost happens first and then +1 gem creation happens. 🥰 Hope that helps, Cara ---

You definitely are and you made a very wise choice! A looping Stellarix is worth its weight in gold! 🤩 🥇 ---
