Santa Ladonna likes to keep secrets

[Kaede]

so... anyone knows?

[Moonbane]

I think there was something about hidden weapons for them.

First time ive had more than one Super Candy Box drop, and that was with Santa Ladonna.

When you finish a round with Santa, theres a Levelin'Eh weapon in the dps list.

Levelin'Eh is the Gemini counterpart of Santa Javelin.

As for the original question, here's the full description of her abilities (taken from the beta-devlog channel on the discord):
Starts with a temporary cooldown bonus and automatically triggers a Rosary when reaching critically low HP (recover hp to full to recharge the ability).
Can find Arcanas instead of Evolutions in treasure chests (doesn't affect the maximum amount of Arcanas she can have)
Spawns an Arma Dio at level 40
Spawns a Candybox at level 80
When leveling up, is she has Santa Water, King Bible, and Cross all at level 8, then they all get consumed and she gains a hidden La Borra, Unholy Vespers, and Heaven Sword.

Hrm, not sure I understand that last part.

Moonbane, it means she does a free upgrade for you. Instead of having to ALSO have the secondary component AND find a chest to then give you the gemini/upgrade version of the weapon. She instead simply takes the base weapons(that are MAXED level) and does this.

Are you saying that if she has Santa Water, King Bible and Cross at lvl 8, they get converted to their upgraded version, but hidden versions. So you effectively gain 3 additional weaponslots?

Yes, it seems this happens as soon as you level up again after maxing out all 3.

Interesting..
That means that Santa Ladonna does not want to take Clover, Spellbinder or Attractorb early on.

Yep and its pretty great. Because it seems to be upgraded? tweaked versions of them as well, so the hidden weapons are even better. So if you play her, throw those weapons on her ASAP. It gets loony

[Moonbane]

Seems the special unholy vespers from this have a whiteblueish model. Upgrading to the special version will not let you take the standard version again even with a candybox.

Once you have the special versions, the normal evolved also cannot be picked by super candy box.

Finished the round. Looks like the hidden versions of them have the same names as the evolved versions

Very cool , good job figuring this out , for some reason the first thing that popped into my head when I saw her description was the LOTR meme "Fine then keep your secrets"

I did notice the candy box and arcana from normal chests and her lab has lots of different weapons she seems to be working on, Rosary , santa water and La Borra bottles on shelves. but I never use cross so I didn't figure out the combination , that is very useful.

[Moonbane]

Clover and Spellbinder can be gained from lever activations in Laborratory. But you appear to have to trigger them -before- you complete the secret collection in order for them to appear. Havent seen Attractorb yet.

Edit: Have had attractorb appear as well from levers.
So it seems the levers is capable of outputting the 3 secret weapons, cross, santa water and king bible, and their associated accesories for Santa Ladonna.

Edit2: So youd want the 3 accessories triggered and ready to collect before completing the secret collection, and when you already have 6 accessories. Arma Dio ontop adds even more accessories to the mix.

Edit3: Santa Ladonna might just be one of the strongest characters. I had thought the mech wouldve been my new interest, but Santa is feeling much more interesting to use. More engaging to play. Carello works well on the Laborratory map with all the tight straight lines to bounce back and forth on.

One extra (possibly related to santa) secret I've noticed; since unlocking them my collection has a sealable "?" entry i haven't unlocked yet, despite having unlocked every weapon in the game up to this patch and done all the unlocks from the dev's spoilers (I've checked, it's not arma dio). Anyone figure out what it is or have any theories how we can find out?

*EDIT* I originally assumed it was part of the "emergency meeting" dlc due to it being right after "mini scientist" in the collection (its in between that and the xp gem entry), but after going back into the map with all the characters I just can't seem to find/unlock it and have since expanded my search to trying anything I can think of even loosely related to the dlc pack.

Its linked to the characters like the others.
