Diablo 4 upgrade healing potion solution

Upgrading healing potions in Diablo 4 requires you to level up until you reach level 10, then the key quest Upgrade your potion will appear as well as a few others. You should now visit the Apothecary in Kyovashad and do your first potion upgrade.

To upgrade your healing potion for the first time from the Weak Healing Potion you’ll just need to visit the Apothecary, but to upgrade your Tiny Healing Potion you’ll need to have gathered 2x Gallowvine.

Then, to upgrade it to the Minor Healing Potion you’ll need to have reached level 20, collected 15x Gallowvine, 5x Biteberry, and 400 gold.

For more information, check out which levels you need to reach and any ingredients and Gold required with our trusty table below.
