Diablo 4 is home to some of the best action RPG combat and mechanics. Set for a June 6, 2023 release, the game will bring forth some of the vilest enemies in the demon-infested lands of Sanctuary. Hence, you will need your HP topped up with health potions to tackle them. Incidentally, just like any other game of this genre, you will also have to upgrade them.

The Alchemist will be your go-to choice for potion upgrades and Elixir crafting in Diablo 4. However, there are limited upgrades with certain prerequisites. Thus, this article will cover all details on how to manage your upgrades.

Exploring all potion upgrades in Diablo 4

To upgrade potions in this action RPG, you must first unlock The Alchemist by visiting the shop in Kyovashad. After visiting Veroka, The Alchemist, you will be able to upgrade potions depending on your character level. Although there are several other Alchemist shops in the game, the one in Kyovashad will be the first one you encounter in Diablo 4.

Once you reach Level 10, you can upgrade your potion to the next level. Moreover, the progression and upgradability of your potions will depend on your character level. For example, you can upgrade your Weak Healing Potion to a Tiny Healing Potion once you reach Level 10.

However, when you reach Level 20, you can upgrade it to a Minor Healing Potion. This is the trend that the game follows in this aspect.

The various upgrade options depending on character level are:

Level 1- Weak Healing Potion
Level 10- Tiny Healing Potion
Level 20- Minor Healing Potion
Level 30- Light Healing Potion
Level 45- Moderate Healing Potion
Level 60- Strong Healing Potion
Level 70- Greater Healing Potion
Level 80- Major Healing Potion
Level 90- Superior Healing Potion
