You can only overcharm if you have at least one notch open.

This is important to note: you can overcharm as long as you have more charm notches full than you have available, but because the penalty for overcharming is the same no matter how many notches you go over your limit you can often fit more charms if you order them correctly. Specifically, you can fit the most charms on at once if you leave the most expensive charm you want to use off and then put other charms on until you are 1 notch from full; the more notches you go over the better because every notch you go over by is one more notch in the build you wouldn’t have had if you didn’t overcharm.

Edit: also make sure it makes sense to overcharm with whatever you choose, health boostinng charms are never worth overcharming, since none of them give enough health to overcome the double damage (ie Fragile Heart will take you from 5 to 7 health at base, but you will now die in 4 hits instead of 5). Overcharming is much more useful as an offense boost to kill things as quick as possible.

Overcharmed is an importmant thing and since the godmaster dlc came out its even more importmant. But i recommend u too not use overcharmed till u beat the game cuz double damage gives u trouble.
