I know I've read somewhere that with the Augmented perks they don't affect the wall spells except when I've used it unperked then used it with the perks I notice a difference. So, do these perks work with the wall spells and not just with the ranged spells?

wall spells don't seem to benefit from the destruction perks. This makes it a spell that is actually more useful for non-destruction mages such as summoners, illusionists and alteration mages who don't put points in destruction. It has a relatively cheap magicka cost/damage ratio if the target stands in the wall for the duration. This is easy to do by casting a wall spell underneath an enemy engaged in melee with your summons, or placing walls underneath frenzied enemies fighting each other, and even easier to paralyze a target and lay wall spells beneath them. Wall spells do 50 damage a second, lasts several seconds and has a base cost of 118 magicka a second, fully perked incinerate with aspect of terror does 100 damage. Now if you are a destruction mage, incinerate is obviously much better, but you have to spend some perks and use magicka reduction gear. The wall spells on the otherhand, require no perks and frugally putting a single fire wall spot on the ground barely costs anything for two or three hundred damage.
