Where are All Yellow Herbs Resident Evil 4 Remake
Despite their humble looks, yellow herbs have always played a significant role in the Resident Evil franchise. In the original RE4, for example, Leon needed them in his healing potions to get permanent health boosts. A yellow herb is a healing potion ingredient with the ability to increase the consumer’s health permanently. In Resident Evil 4 Remake, Leon can either find this item in specific locations or buy it from the Merchant in exchange for Spinels.
Excluding the one sold by the Merchant, there are 18 yellow herbs in the RE4 remake, one per Chapter from Chapters 1 through 12; and two per Chapter in Chapters 13, 14, and 15. The only Chapter with no yellow herbs is Chapter 16. Leon’s health bar maxes out after consuming 12-13 Red-Green-Yellow potions. But it may take more to maximize his HP with other combinations like Red + Yellow.
