Understand incense in Diablo IV, their usefulness and the hidden power to boost your characters with thirds of incense!

How incense works on Diablo 4

Incenses allow you to have stat and experience buffs on your character, in addition to elixirs. You can accumulate three incenses to benefit from the three statistical bonuses, however you will have a maximum of five percent of experience in total, that is to say that only one incense will be taken into account for the experience. In order to accumulate incense, you can choose one of each third, third 1, 2 then 3. There is only one third three incense, but several third 1 and 2 incenses. If you are alone, you will have the bonus for a single player. By passing near a player with an incense or when he activates it, for example in front of the portal of the Zir Slaughterhouse, you will obtain the buff. Here are the best incense to make:

• Tier 3: only a choice with the overpower statistic and damage boost
• Tier 2: max life bonus
• Tier 1: main characteristic bonus or armor

Be careful, incense costs a lot of materials and only lasts twenty minutes. Remember to use them at the right time!
