Consumables: Temporary Advantages

- Healing Potions: Restore character health
- Elixirs: Provide various benefits like increased armor
- Incense: Enhance maximum life or elemental resistance
New Consumables in Season 5
According to Wowhead, Diablo 4’s upcoming Season 5 will introduce four new consumables, exclusively designed for the Infernal Hordes mode. These additions include:
- Antipathy: A rare anointment granting resistance boosts
- Blackblood: A common anointment enhancing a random core stat
- Vitriol: A magical anointment increasing damage over time
- Triune Anointment Cache: A new cache containing anointments, rare gear, and crafting materials
Infernal Hordes Mode
Season 5 of Diablo 4 is set to unleash a thrilling new endgame mode: Infernal Hordes. This exciting addition promises a roguelite experience where players will face off against waves of formidable foes. Each wave will be timed, lasting 90 seconds, and upon victory, players will be presented with a choice of three modifiers that will significantly impact their run.
Abyssal Scrolls and Crafting
In Diablo 4’s upcoming Infernal Hordes mode, Abyssal Scrolls will play a key role in amplifying the challenge, drawing inspiration from the Profane Mindcage Elixir’s mechanics in Helltides.
