The Kanai’s Cube recipe mentioned above by others is what you want to use for targeting a specific item type. Kadala is an intermediate means of targeting a specific slot. It was put in because targeting items via random loot drops is impossible. Think of them as a supplement for the game’s random loot drops. They don’t become useless, just slightly less relevant depending on the equipment slot you’re looking for. Is that by design? Or do you see it as a game design shortcoming that can use a patch coming in the future that makes blood shards more useful?

So I am right that blood shards become useless after a certain point in the game.
