I don't know for throwblast but, like I've said before, anything that duplicate a spell effect like Surging Light Tome are indeed affected by periapts.

Which is quite logical : basicaly it's an item telling that you can use that spell skill regardless of class, nothing more.

Otherwise, IMO, each item would have a need for a Magick score used to calculate damage ; making them them either OP at the start of the game or useless at the end because it would be a static value.

I admit that is difficult to see when you play something else than Sorcerer because your Magick score will be very low but try with and without 4 periapts and with and without your Archistaff equipped and the difference should be obvious. Personaly I tested it with Fulgurous Lord Tome on Saurian which is far more easy to test.
