any tips

Step 1: Have 6 weapons
Step 2: Have the correct 6 Passives
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit

[Alun1]

most weapons can evolve, with the exception of 4 or 5, you just need to pick the ones with evolutions and their counterpart passives.

if you absolutely have to have laurel or clock lancet, those work too, you just need to pick up the respective passives from the map.

Whichever, order doesn't matter. And its always better to level up one weapon at a time, because the starting levels for most weapons aren't great.

lvl weapons first if you can

As suggested you should probably make leveling the weapons a priority over leveling the passives. Especially since, except for two weapons Laurel and Shield Lancet that require you level passives to max, no weapon evolutions require the passives to be leveled, just present.

Though, it depends on play style, what items the game is giving you, and experience in the game. Sometimes leveling a passive might make a huge difference, like Empty Tome where it will reduce your weapon cooldowns making all of them fire off faster which might just save your skin early game.

But, also prioritize picking up passives when you see them. If you have the Fire Wand weapon for instance, if you see Spinach as a new passive you can pickup you should definitely do so because you may not see it again.

the weapons without evolutions are the ones used as starting weapons for the line of characters who get +1 projectile every 10 levels, max +3.

Write down which weapons and items you want, keeping in mind which items are on the map, then make a strategy about what to prioritize.

It helps to have some skips/banishes/rerolls, but you usually won't need many.

This is my general strategy:

Top priorities (in order)
- Pick up item I want but don't have yet (assuming it's not a map item)
- Pick up weapon I want but don't have yet
- Upgrade Orb/Crown (these are growth accelerators, so max them ASAP)
- Upgrade weapon with fewest levels until max (discount weapons whose item is a map item that you don't have yet)

These two have equal priority and can be chosen by preference
- Upgrade preferred item
- Banish something I don't want

And Finally
- Skip
- Reroll

Reasoning:
Skip is only preferred to reroll to ensure that you have some rerolls left for arcana selection. If you're hurting for equipment then burning some rerolls is fine.

Banishing is preferred to both, because it improves the odds of getting something you actually want on subsequent level-ups. Remember to save a banish for Torrona/Skull if you plan to avoid some curse that way. Don't banish map items that you want to level up later, because picking them up will just give you the one level and you'll never be able to upgrade them. (You can do this with Skull O'Maniac if you only want it for the evo.)

I usually get Mad Groove at 11 minutes, but remember to not pick up map items you want until you have 6 items already.

Try to make a build that won't strand you with super low damage or utility. Your end build may be great, but if you do no damage until it's complete then you're going to have a bad time.

Some characters also start with an evolved weapon and those count towards the total. I used Marrabbio for that. Red Death, Leda, Minnah and some others I forget start with an evolved weapon too.

Note: most of these characters take more effort to unlock than doing the achievement the normal way.

One at a time.

not if you already have them before the unlock comes available like it was in my case. boon isn't hard to unlock anyway.

If you want an easier job of maxing 6 weapons, try practicing on Moongolow (which is a short, 15-minute bonus stage that provides 16 passive items all around the player for you to immediately pickup at the start). This way, you can plan & grab your "correct" 6 items immediately at L1, and then you can focus on the weapons for your later level ups. Moongolow is an easy stage to practice on.

Plan your build while you are still sitting at the character select screen or, at least, have a good idea of what you want to do with your build.

Instead of picking a character and then grabbing whatever appears on the level up screen, decide on at least 3 or 4 weapons that you want, BEFORE you get into the game. That way, you know what you are looking for and are more likely to be able to evolve all 6 weapons.

I think I did mine on dairy plant as well. The stage items probably helped but I don't remember if I used them or not. The chests in there can always evolve a weapon that has met the requirements if I recall correctly.
