Attunement (Dark Souls)

Attunement is a stat in Dark Souls.

Description

This stat governs how many Attunement Slots the player has, which in turn allows players to equip and use more types of magic at once. It is also possible to increase Attunement Slots through equipping certain rings. If the player is comfortable using only a few spells at once, and they don't mind switching one spell out for another when the need arises, then they won't need to put many points into Attunement.

Most spells require only one attunement slot. Some, however, require two. All Chaos pyromancies, Sunlight Spear, Bountiful Sunlight and Soothing Sunlight are examples of this.

Number of Attunement Slots Development

The following is a table of how many attunement slots are granted for each level of Attunement.

Attunement Level	Number of Attunement Slots
0-9	0
10-11	1
12-13	2
14-15	3
16-18	4
19-22	5
23-27	6
28-33	7
34-40	8
41-49	9
50-99	10

As the number of slots does not increase after Attunement level 50, putting any more points into it would be an absolute waste, unless for completionist purposes. Levels after 50 will still increase damage resistance, but the Resistance stat does a better job of that.

Additional slots can be attained from:

Item	Additional Slots
Darkmoon Seance Ring	1
White Seance Ring	1

The maximum possible attunement slots is 12.
