Best Herb Combinations in Resident Evil 4 Remake

Like all Resident Evil games, the Resident Evil 4 remake will allow for players to put together combinations of herbs to heal their wounds. However, a few adjustments have been made to this system, which may come as a surprise to some series veterans. While First Aid Sprays will always 100% heal your health bar, the standard Green and Red Herb combination will no longer fully top you up. There are also a total of three different types of herbs you can obtain in the game. These are the Green, Red, and Yellow types.

Green and Red can be combined to heal you with varying effectiveness. Whereas combining a Yellow herb in it will increase Leon’s total health pool. This will be vital in making certain combat encounters more manageable. It isn’t necessary, and you can absolutely play the game without upgrading your health at all. Thankfully, in the remake you can actually combine a both Red and Yellow without need a Green in order to use the mixture. This will up Leon’s health, but won’t heal him. So it’s best to conserve the use of Yellow Herbs for when you can either combine it with a Green and Red or two Greens.
