How do you evolve the Night Sword?

[Ciffy]

My grimoire has everything laid out except that one. It's still a ? box. I have everything else evolved already. Am I just supposed to pick up every accessory item until it shows up?

You need the stone mask to evolve the night sword.

[Ciffy]

thank you. will keep trying as I just did that but it didn't evolve.

I think it's an oddball one where it has to be a max level Stone Mask, can't just be level 1 like most evolutions.

I'm thinking all the DLC evolutions are like that.

weird, I'm not getting the night sword to evolve despite having max stone mask and lvl 8 sword. Several runs now and no evolution no matter what character or other weapon used.

I think it might have to be after certain amount of time. After min 20? Not sure though.

Yep. As far as I'm aware all the DLC evolutions require all components to be maxed.

10min.. but I don't think you want the Blood Sword...

[HungS0l0]

Yeah, evolutions start at 10min, but for this one, it will just keep going up in level (9, 10 etc) for me. Tried using only 1 weapon, 2 weapons, etc. Stone mask maxed, still won't evolve.

sounds like you talk about the victory sword, that goes to lvl 12 and you need torronas box maxed out

I was on Mt. Moonspell and picked up Stone Mask from the map (top right) and Night Sword from the map (top mid). I could upgrade the Night Sword to max, but the Stone Mask stayed on Level 1 with the empty check boxes having a red outline. I did not get the option to upgrade the Stone Mask. How to get Stone Mask to max level?

That means you Sealed the Stone Mask in the collection screen, which makes it so it will never appear when you level up. Go to collection and unseal it.

It has to be mentioned that picking up a treasure chest after minute 10 does NOT guarantee that the evolution will drop. If you have a bunch of others weapons/passives which still need to be upgraded, the treasure chest can very well decide to give you one(1) or multiple upgrades instead of the evolution. Or give you an other evolution if applicable. It is heavily influenced by the luck stat. Still in general the weapon evolution seems to have at least some level of priority over some regular upgrades.

As some people mentioned you don't absolutely need to have the associated passive maxed for the evolution to potentially appear. But having it maxed makes things a lot more likely.

To maximise evolutions appearance, it's as such recommended to have as few things that need upgrades as possible in your inventory, to have your associated evolution passive maxed, and of course to have a high luck.

Also, as was noted in the post just before that, it is absolutely crucial you don't seal any element of the evolution, be it the weapon or the passive.

In general sealing passives is a very bad idea, as even if you don't get some, they can still be on maps, allowing you to go over the amount of 6 by just not choosing the ones on the map during level up, and just picking them up once your 6 slots are full. High luck can also cause passives to drop just like that, although this is quite rare.

You do need the passive item maxed in this case, because it is a DLC weapon. Also, weapon evolutions are always guaranteed if it's a chest that can contain an evolution and you meet the requirements, luck is not a factor in that case.
