Sydyru Crust
Sydryu Crust is a crafted legendary bow that can only be created in Reaper of Souls. Creating this item requires a Sydyru Bone, one of the legendary materials.
To craft the Sydryu Crust, find the Plan: Sydryu Crust, which can be dropped by any level 70 target, and teach the plan to the Blacksmith. Once learned by the smith, any character on your account can make as many of these as you can afford to create, though only the Witch Doctor can equip it.
Sydryu Crust stats
This bow can not equal the quality of the ranged weapons with useful legendary affixes, but has excellent damage potential and the very useful Damage to Elites modifier.
The problem with this bow (and the Unbound Bolt as well, is that both have 3 primary affixes. This leaves only one slot for +Dexterity and a socket, both of which are essential for a top end weapon in Reaper of Souls. Thus a player must hope to get either Dex or a socket as the random primary affix, and then enchant one of the inherent properties -- IAS or DTE -- into the other. Damage to Elites is a much more valuable modifier than Increased Attack Speed, once a player moves up into the higher difficulty levels.

Legendary Material
The required legendary material, Sydyru Bone can only drop from Unique (purple) Bats. These are found primarily in the cathedral levels of Act One, and may spawn as Bounties. The most common Bat is probably Sicklefang, the end boss of the Carrion Farm event in the Fields of Misery, which appears in one third to one half of games.
- Bounty -- Glidewing, Act 1, Cathedral Level 1.
- Bounty -- Firestarter, Act 1, Cathedral Level 2.
- Event -- Sicklefang, Act 1, Fields of Misery. End boss of the Carrion Farm event.
- Bounty -- Hellscream, Act 2, The Unknown Depths dungeon below the Archives of Zoltun Kulle.
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. The figures are the percent chance the legendary material (or Deaths Breath will be dropped by a valid source. All legendary materials except Adventurer's Journals and Griswold's Scribblings can only be dropped by Unique (purple) bosses of a certain type. See the legendary materials article for full details.
