Material

From Diablo Wiki
Materials are obtained by salvaging items with the Blacksmith in town. On their own materials have no function, but they are required for crafting items.
Material types
There are nine materials in total. Each difficulty level has its own magic material and its own rare material. Inferno alone has a legendary material. An item always yields materials of the difficulty level its item level corresponds to: item levels 1–30 are Normal, 31–50 are Nightmare, 51–59 are Hell, and 60–63 are Inferno.
- Magic items have a 100% chance to yield a magic material and a 15% chance to also yield a rare material.
- Rare items have a 100% chance to yield both a magic material and a rare material.
- Legendary and set items have a 100% chance to yield three rare materials. On Inferno, one of these Iridescent Tears is swapped for a Fiery Brimstone.
Materials cannot be converted or upgraded.
