A magicitem's description explains howthe itemworks.
Handling a magic itemis enough to givea character a
sense that something is extraordinary about the item.
Casting the identify spellon the itemthen reveals its
properties. Alternatively, a character canconcentrate
on the itemduring a short rest,while being in physical
contact with the item.At the endof the rest,the character
learns the item'sproperties. Potions are an exception;a
littletasteis enough to tell the tasterwhatthe potiondoes.
Certain magic itemsrequire a user to attune to them
before theirmagical properties canbe used.Attuning
to a magicitemrequires thatyouspend a short rest
concentrating on it (thiscan'tbe the sameshort rest
usedto learn an item'sproperties). Depending on the
nature of the item,this concentration cantake the formof
prayers, weapon practice, or meditation. In any case, the
concentration period mustbe uninterrupted. Onceyouare
attuned to an item,youcanuseits magical properties.
An itemcanbe attunedto onlyonecreature at a time.A
creature canbe attuned to no morethan three magicitems
at anygiventime,andyoucanattune yourself to onlyone
itemduring a short rest.
Yourattunement to an itemendswhen the itemhasbeen
more than 100 feetawayfromyoufor 24 hoursandwhen
youdie.Youcanalsovoluntarily endyourattunement to
an itemwith another short rest.52
