No spectators for Enchantment. Participants in a Cone of Power might not count as "spectators" but will subtract as usual.

The only way i can think of is for Headley to have bought his magic staff as Signature Gear. Which is what he did.

So at TL8 1 pt of Signature Gear gets you $10,000 worth of Enchantments. Figure out how much Powerstone he could have gotten with that and you a l have a canonical / no House Rules needed answer.

If you do the math on Headley he's correct pointswise but not actually a very good spelcaster though I suppose he could depend on Buying Successes with Unspent CP.
