SpiritVale Card Socketing Guide: Slots, Removal & Coins
SpiritVale Info describes cards as collectible enhancements inserted into equipment. Most equipment can have card slots, while artifacts do not have card slots.

Check the item before socketing
The community wiki says equipment has a limited number of available slots and that slot patterns vary by item type and rarity. Treat a card choice as part of the equipment decision, not an isolated permanent purchase.
Know the documented removal path
According to SpiritVale Info, cards can be removed through the card removal merchant in Nevaris; removal preserves both the card and the equipment but costs coins.
Keep effects and values sourced
Boss cards, specific effects, and drop rates should only be published with their underlying database entry and review date. Use this page for the documented system workflow, not a speculative drop table.
