Spell slots are now called memory slots in Elden Ring. Memory cells are characteristics that determine how many spells a Tarnished One can use. Previously, in old Souls games, raising the level of a certain indicator increased the number of spell slots a character could have. However, now in Elden Ring, spell slots can only be increased by obtaining items called memory stones.

Elden Ring relies heavily on its magical side, where some abilities are somewhat suppressed. Thus, having more memory slots in the Elden Ring helps players overcome many dangerous scenarios. Therefore, it is important for Tarnished Ones to be prepared when it comes to using the right amount of spells during combat.
Updated by Nahda Nabiila on July 23, 2022: According to Elden Ring, Memory Stones are black shiny stones that were once very precious to the sorcerers who created them. They say that the stones resemble fragments of the black moon that illuminated the Eternal City. Memory Stones are crucial for many players, especially those who use Magic or Spells, as they increase their spell slots in the Elden Ring. Since some spells require more than one slot, it is important to collect all available Memory Stones to be ready for any battle while exploring the Intermediate Lands.
How to get memory slots in Elden Ring
To get memory cells in the Elden Ring, players must find memory stones. Once these gems are obtained, they will immediately increase the spell slots for the current character (without having to do anything). Getting more memory slots allows players to perform various witchcraft and spells. This can be useful in difficult situations where a certain spell can save the day.
To assign Witchcraft and Spells, players must rest in a Place of Lost Grace. From there, scroll down and click “Memorize Spells”. This page contains all the spells that the Tarnished Ones have learned and that can be equipped to use. Players should keep in mind that staffs are used to cast spells of witchcraft, while Sacred Seals can cast spells of spells.
How to get Memory Stones in Elden Ring
Memory Stones can be obtained from chests by defeating bosses or bought from NPCs. Since this item is important, it is not surprising that Memory Stones are difficult to obtain. Players must thoroughly search all Intermediate Lands. However, some of them can still be obtained at the beginning of the game, for example, the Memory Stone located inside the Fortress of the Round Table. Players can access this area once they get to Margit, the boss battle of The Fell Omen. It cost 3,000 runes, so be prepared.
