Evolution System
Weapon evolution triggers when a maxed base weapon meets its required passive item in the same run. The evolved version has dramatically higher damage, range, and special effects.

Tips
Lock onto 1-2 base weapons early and chase their passives aggressively. For Vandalier, secure both Peachone and Ebony Wings before mid-game.
Max-level the base weapon — evolution requires it. Use light-source pickups and shop upgrades to ensure level cap.
Evolutions replace the base card. Mana cost stays the same or rises slightly, so combo staircases stay intact.
