Diablo 4 Health Orb Explained
You might have come across the Diablo 4 Health Orb, or Health Globe, and had no idea what to do with it. You’d assume that it would heal you, but nope, your health meter doesn’t budge when you interact with the sphere. If that’s not their role, then what are they for? How do you use them? Surely they serve some purpose. Well, let’s find out.
Health Orb in Diablo 4
So, what is a Health Orb or Health Globe in Diablo 4? Well, it’s a shiny ole red sphere, which you’d assume recharges your health. After all, that’s what it did in Diablo Immortal. Welp, that’s not exactly what it does in Diablo IV. No, it actually recharges the amount of health potions you have at your disposal (four being the maximum). Yes, it seems like the developers have kinda sorta reworked the Dark Souls system and have given you a limited number of healing flasks. You use them by hitting Q on PC; I don’t know what the equivalent is on consoles. A Health Orb will not restore any health when you interact with it, only the potions. Always keep that in mind and plan accordingly.
That’s basically all you need to know about what a Health Orb or Glove in Diablo 4 is and what it does. I am sure that the change in the mechanic has caused a lot of confusion among veteran players. Hopefully, we’ve cleared things up a bit now. Once more for the cheap seats in the back:
- The Health orbs are big red orbs that you can run into on your voyages.
- They do not replenish your health, but your health potion charges, aka how many health potions you have.
That’s all there is to it. If there’s something else confusing you in Diablo 4, allow me to redirect you to our other guides. We’ve written articles like Rite of Passage, Inscribe Fear, Anger, Pride, Greed, Missing Pieces Bug Solutions and Altar of Lilith Locations in Fractured Peaks.
