==Development==
Forgotten Souls were introduced to the game in Reaper of Souls, and did not exist in Diablo 3 Classic. In the early game, [[Fiery Brimstone]]s were the material obtained from salvaging legendary items. Initially in Reaper of Souls, Fiery Brimstones remained in the game and came from Level 1-60 gear, while Forgotten Souls came from level 61-70 gear.
==Diablo Brimstones (and also the white/blue/yellow materials for level 1-60) were eliminated when the crafting system was overhauled and streamlined in [[Patch 2.3 classic==]]. That patch and Patch 2.4 also greatly boosted the drop rates for Forgotten Souls, enabling them to fall directly from Treasure Goblins, as well as boosting the overall drop rate for legendary items, which can be salvaged into Forgotten Souls.
This material did not exist in Diablo 3 vanilla, and was introduced in Reaper of Souls, only from items or targets above Diablo 3's maximum level.
