Diablo – How to equip legendary potions

There is no reason not to pick up heath potions. At worst, a stack of 100 takes up one inventory slot. At best, they are essentially a free healing spell with a 30 second cooldown. Any little bit of healing can save your life.

Now, you definitely want to make sure you are always using the best health potion you can get. If you are out of type, another type is not used instead. You need to manually switch to them.

As a monk who likes to get right in the heart of the action, I find myself victim to a lot of spike damage. Enemies will hit me hard, but are unable to maintain their attacks before their demise. I can't spam my healing abilities, and sometimes I don't have the mana to do so anyway. Health potions provide just the boost I need to keep on punching.

Any item that has the affix "Increases attack speed" increases the attack speed of the item it's on, meaning if it's on a weapon, only that weapon will be increased even if you dual wield. This also means that any pieces of armour with "Increases attack speed" won't have any effect, as they can't attack.

Any item with the prefix "Attack speed increased" increases the attack speed of all equipped weapons, therefore, if it's on a piece of armour it will still work.

So:

• IAS - Increases attack speed = BAD (except on weapons)
• ASI - Attack speed increased = GOOD
