Does Consume Enchantment prevent you from attuning normally? Or do you have 3 normal attunement slots AND 5 consumed enchantment slots? Consuming an Attunement item both destroys the item, AND attunes it to you. 5 total enchantments can be consumed at any given time. This includes the 3 attuned items (or 1 attuned and 4 not, or 2 attuned, and 3 not, etc)

Okay I think I understand. So 5 total consumed enchantments (which are not necessarily from attunement-required items), 3 maximum of which may be attunement-required enchantments? You got it!

Ah wait one more question, if you don’t mind. How does this interact with the Poltergeist’s Spectral Warrior feature? That specifically states that “any magical equipment you are attuned to can be used with this feature.” Just clarifying that you can attack creatures with any non-magical object and apply the bonus, or NOT destroy a magical weapon (just attune to it) and wield it with the Haunt feature.
