Diablo 4 Incense: All Types, Materials & Effects

Everything you need to know about Diablo 4 Incense crafting, unlocking it to the crafting materials required, and the effect these powerful potions provide.
Diablo 4 Incense: All Types, Materials & Effects

Prospective Nephalem can craft several potions and elixirs in Diablo 4, but what about the powerful Incense consumable? Incense, created with the help of the Alchemist, is a unique consumable type that provides 20-minute buffs not only to the player but to their party members as well, making it ideal for grouping up and taking on World Bosses, Nightmare Dungeons, Helltide or any other endgame activity in Diablo 4.

This article explains how you can unlock Incense crafting in Diablo 4 and outlines all Incense, its effects, and the materials required to craft them.

How To Unlock Incense in Diablo 4

The first step is that players need to reach level 10. After doing so, they will receive a Priority Quest to go see the Alchemist in Kyovashad, the central hub of the Fractured Peaks region. Once you've upgraded a few potions and maybe crafted a couple of elixirs to help with your leveling process, you might be wondering when you can start crafting Incense.

Well, crafting Incense will require you to level up a lot more. In fact, the first Incense players can craft, Song of The Mountain, unlocks at level 45 when you are close to finishing the campaign.
