Vampire Crawlers: Full List of 17 Weapon Evolutions and How They Work

The new guidance helps players plan runs by avoiding gem missteps to time red‑orb upgrades.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets now consolidate every known recipe, listing 17 evolutions that upgrade base weapons through specific card pairings.
  • An evolution only triggers when you hold the exact prerequisite cards, then open a chest or break a statue that yields a red orb.
  • Gems do not count as the needed cards, and slotting a gem into a card makes that card ineligible for an evolution.
  • Card tiers count as the same item type for recipes, so using a higher‑tier version does not make the evolved weapon stronger.
  • Evolved weapons cost more mana and require you to sacrifice a card, and the game may hand you a helpful card if you lack the right pieces, with the Grim Grimoire relic revealing recipes in‑game.
