Miracle Synergy is a gameplay mechanic in Dark Souls.
General Information[]
Miracle Synergy takes effect when players cast certain miracles whilst online, which creates resonance rings in the worlds of other online players, boosting their miracle power when they cast them in the vicinity of the rings. Resonance rings appear as small white circles floating slightly above the ground.
The miracles which create resonance rings are Bountiful Sunlight, Great Heal, Soothing Sunlight, and Wrath of the Gods.
The number of resonance rings that a player is near results in a certain level of miracle synergy: 1 ring for a level 1 boost, 3 rings for a level 2 boost, 6 rings for a level 3 boost, and 10 rings for a level 4 boost. A maximum of 10 rings can spawn in a player's world at a time.
The Ring of the Sun Princess grants the player one extra level of miracle synergy as long as it is worn. Without the Ring of the Sun Princess, it is possible to have the benefits of a higher level synergy boost, but only when casting miracles near a greater number of resonance rings.
Nine miracles benefit from miracle synergy, as listed below:

Notes[]
Prior to patch 1.06, miracle synergy didn't work on the PS3. They were never encountered, with one exception: two resonance signs were always present near the bottom of the Catacombs (regardless of time of day or online status), right before the valley that leads to Pinwheel. However, they did not synergize with miracles.
As of patch 1.07, miracle synergy doesn't work on the PS3. It is likely that this will not be resolved on the PS3, as there most likely will be no more updates.
