Patch 2.3 added more legendary materials, the [[Horadric Cache mats]], used largely in [[Kanai's Cube]].

Many fans objected strongly[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-patch-2-0-6-notes-legendary-materials], pointing out the lack of any substitute for the complexity and variety of play options the legendary materials offered.

	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.
