The enemies you encounter as you travel through Sanctuary in Diablo 4 will get stronger with time. While your character also goes through a similar effect, you will want as much help as possible while fighting higher-level Bosses in the game. Elixirs are super useful when it comes to that. The Elixir of Man-Slaying is one such substance that will help you deal with human enemies in the game.
The additional damage output this potion gives you will help you breeze through them. This guide will tell you how to make the Elixir and use it in-game.
Diablo 4 Elixir of Man-Slaying recipe
The Elixir of Man-Slaying can be cooked using the following ingredients:
- 15 Gallowvine
- 10 Reddamine
