[[File:Leg-mat-skull-of-raylend-ground.jpg|thumb|300px|Freshly-dropped legendary material.]]
Legendary [[materials]] are found in Reaper of Souls (a few are also found also in [[Diablo 3 version 2]]), and required for all legendary and set [[crafting]]. While all the regular [[materials]] are created by salvaging items, all legendary materials except for [[Fiery Brimstones]] and [[Forgotten Souls]] must be found in the world. They can be difficult to obtain; almost all legendary materials drop '''''only''''' from certain purple [[Unique]] bosses, and these are largely random in their location and frequency.
Like normal types of [[Materials]], Legendary Materials have no function on their own, and are used exclusively in the [[crafting]] of set and legendary items. Players generally find a legendary crafting plan, teach it to the Blacksmith, and then view the details of that armor or weapon before deciding if it's worth trying to find the legendary material required to make it. That's what this article is for, with info on every legendary crafting materials, the legendary/set plan they are tied to, and the name and location of the Unique bosses capable of dropping them.
Legendary materials drop more often on higher [[difficulty]] levels. Their drop rate was tripled in [[Patch 2.0.4]] shortly after Reaper of Souls' release, making them all much easier to find.
* [[Normal]]: 15%* [[Hard]]: 18%* [[Expert]]: 21%* [[Master]]: 25%* [[Torment 1]]: 31%* [[Torment 2]]: 37%* [[Torment 3]]: 44%* [[Torment 4]]: 53%* [[Torment 5]]: 64%* [[Torment 6]]: 77%
The same drop rates apply to [[Death's Breaths]], though they have many more possible drop sources.
This table is meant for quick reference. Refer to the individual legendary material articles for more details on the crafting purposes, scarcity, farming tips, and more.
* Bounties are generally the surest way to farm legendary materials.
** No Uniques are set for a bounty every game, but some are fairly common, and some are found in a fixed location every single game, making for the easiest farming options.
* Bounty and fixed location targets are noted in the table below.
** Targets not noted as bounty or fixed spawn randomly, and will only appear every few games.
* Monsters listed are confirmed to drop the materials. Others may drop but are not yet confirmed. [http://diablo.incgamers.com/forums/showthread.php?850970-The-RoS-Legendary-Crafting-Material-Challenge Feedback in the forum thread] is welcomed.
