Elixir of Fortitude

From Diablo 4 Wiki and Guides - Season 11

Elixir of Fortitude increases Maximum Life as well as the rate at which you earn Experience Points.

Elixirs are a great way to boost stats and increase the rate at which you earn experience points.

Many of them are crafted by an Alchemist and will require you to collect Crafting Materials out in the world from bushes and slaying monsters. They can also drop as rewards and some can be purchased from the Dark Citadel Vendor.

  • Can have 1 Elixir active at the same time.
  • Last 30 minutes and persist through death.
  • Most affect only you.
  • Can consume Elixirs whilst Crowd Controlled.
  • You can have up to 3 Incense active at the same time.
  • Buffs from both your Elixir and Incense can stack but the Experience buff from any Elixir you have active will only stack with the Experience buff from a single Incense.
  • Most can be traded with other players.
  • Full list of Elixirs, including those the Alchemist can not craft.
