Diablo – What determines the quality of loot in horadric caches

diablo-3

Ofcourse your character's level and the random factor affect what you get in the caches, but is there anything else that has influence on the loot from a cache? For example, does it matter on what difficulty I complete the bounties? Does it matter on which difficulty I open them? Anything else?

For clarification, I'm talking about the reward you get from completing all bounties in one act in adventure mode. A new feature in the Reaper of Souls expansion. Upon completing all bounties in one act you get a one time use cache which drops some loot when used. It usually drops a few crafting materials, some rift keystone fragments and a couple of blues and yellow. I've had one legendary so far out of 4 or 5 caches.

I understand there isn't nearly enough data from the community yet to answer this question based on results. But if someone had a link to a blue post explaining this or perhaps an ingame reference that answers this, that would be awesome.
Damn it, I might just spend the next few evenings farming normal – T1 caches and see if I get significant differences in drops :D.

As of patch 2.0.5. Caches have a greater chance to drop legendary items on Torment2+ difficult level.

Now have an increased chance to drop Legendary items on Torment II - VI

The cache will contain items that match the level of the game that the cache was received in. Even if you change to a higher level and open the cache. The level of the items will still be the level you received the cache.
