The Season of Blood offers players the ability to unlock, equip, and upgrade Vampiric Powers during Diablo 4’s second season.
This provides you with unique bonuses that can help you dominate your enemies with little to no effort, granting you a good start during the season.
With a total of 22 Vampiric Powers to choose from, players may now create their perfect build while taking advantage of the vampire bite they received.
How To Get Vampiric Powers?
Vampiric Powers may be used after you have progressed with the Seasonal Quest and may later be acquired by playing during The Season of Blood.
You may obtain Vampiric Powers by unlocking them with Potent Blood, exploring Blood Harvests, and completing Seasonal Quests.
Vampiric Powers are meant to last throughout The Season of Blood and are expected to be removed when the season comes to an end.

Verdict
It’s best to save up your Potent Blood until you have finished the Seasonal Quest unless you are sure that you want to invest them in a certain Vampiric Power.
Each Vampiric Power requires that you have a certain Pact Capacity before it can be active, even if it has already been equipped.
Utilizing the Vampiric Powers can help you progress quickly throughout the season, saving you a lot of time from having to boost your character in various ways.
