Weapon Evolutions List & Chart
Most evolutions use chests: raise the base weapon to max rank, hold any additional item listed in the table (at the rank shown, if specified), then open a chest. If no additional item is listed, the base weapon is the only equipment needed. For evolutions through character transformation, follow the transformation shown in that row.
