Where to find Blightshade in Diablo 4

In Diablo 4, you can use Blightshade to create certain concoctions with an Alchemist, such as upgraded Healing Potions and the Weak Elixir of Shadow Resistance. Like any herb in this game, you’ll need to find it in the overworld. You can find this strange blue plant in one specific region of Sanctuary.

How you get and farm Blightshade in Diablo 4 is right in Hawezar, which is Sanctuary’s south-eastern region. Because this herb only grows in Hawezar, you’re bound to find it everywhere. You can’t miss it, Blightshade is a glowing blue plant that grows in the ground.

Just remember that Blightshade, like all herbs, grows randomly. There isn’t an exact route to follow to find Blightshade, but it won’t take long to find it once you enter Hawezar. If you’re not so interested in scavenging for it, there are two other ways to receive Blightshade. First, when you finish a side quest in Diablo 4, you’ll often receive a Cache as a reward. Sometimes these Caches contain a pack of herbs, which can include Blightshade.

Another easy way to get some Blightshade is actually through the Alchemist. You may not know this, but you can Refine materials like Blightshade. This converts materials into another type. All you need is five Gallowvine and 200 Gold to get Blightshade. Since Gallowvine is quite common and can appear in any region, Refining it into Blightshade is a pretty easy way to obtain it.
