Warhammer Survivors features dozens of weapon evolutions across its Warhammer 40K and Age of Sigmar settings. Each upgrade depends on a particular weapon and supporting item, and knowing the correct combination makes planning your build much easier.

How to Unlock More Evolutions in Warhammer Survivors
Weapon evolutions depend on pairing the correct weapon with its associated item. However, not every piece of equipment is necessarily available immediately. Unlocking additional characters expands your weapon options, while certain items are connected to objectives you must complete.
The fastest way to use these lists is to work backward from the evolution you want. Find its result in the table, identify the starting weapon, and check which supporting item you need for that combination.
Which Items Work With Multiple Weapons?
Several items are useful across different evolution paths, which makes them worth recognizing when planning builds. For example, Lightning Bolt works with both Storm Bolter and Crozius Arcanum in Warhammer 40K, producing entirely different evolved weapons.
Across the two settings, Tape Measure pairs with Chainsword and Grandblade, while Glue pairs with Flamer and Mystical Ward. The correct outcome still depends on which weapon you combine with the item.
What Do You Get for Unlocking Every 40K Evolution?
Completing the Warhammer 40K evolution collection rewards Archeotech, which guarantees a base weapon. That gives completionists an additional reason to experiment with less familiar combinations rather than repeatedly using the same equipment.
Since access to certain weapons and items depends on other unlocks, expanding your available equipment is an important part of completing the full evolution collection.
