Diablo 4 healing potions - the Druid is taking a swig of a drink.

Want to know how to upgrade your Diablo 4 healing potion? Chances are that you will take some hits as you’re butchering the demons of hell with your axe or obliterating them with magic. As veterans of the series will find all too familiar, this can bring on quite the thirst, so you’ll be chugging your healing potions to stave off a horrible case of death.

But while the healing potion is a universal item in Diablo 4, it is a little weaker initially. Thankfully, with the help of valuable herbs growing throughout Sanctuary and an Alchemist’s pot, you can increase how much it heals you per use, no matter which one of the five Diablo 4 classes you are fighting demons as. Now that the Diablo 4 release date is here, you may wish to familiarise yourself with the ingredients you need to upgrade the Diablo 4 healing potion.
