Get back into Diablo IV with the list of all the Vampiric Powers! Enhance your class and plan out your build.
Diablo IV Season of Blood introduces 22 Vampiric Powers to enhance your class. Whichever of the 5 you play: Sorceress, Barbarian, Rogue, Necromancer, or Druid, each one will have access to these. Plan accordingly and select the powers that play to your strengths.
During Season of Blood, you need to gather Potent Blood, which is a new resource. It drops from enemies, and unlocks powers at random for you, or upgrades current ones. You can speed up this process by playing through the seasonal questline or completing the new seasonal egvent, Blood Harvest, which is a bit similar to Helltides.
You can equip 5 Vampiric Powers and configure them in a handy menu in the character screen (C).
There is one more necessary step for tapping into your vampiric potential. You need Legendary items that have the right Pacts. Think of them as three "flavors" or "colors." They are Ferocity, Divinity, and Eternity. You'll only be able to equip Vampiric Powers that match however many of those Pacts you're holding on your gear.
If you're tied to whatever items you found, but they don't have the right Pacts, don't worry. There will be items that reroll the Pacts: you'll be able to cleanse the Pacts, and then directly add the specific ones you want. No RNG involved.
You can acquire those items from Seasonal events in the game.
