Bug with Evolutions
Since the last DLC come out, I keep having the same bug:
Some weapons don't evolve.
Am I missing something?
It's a common bug or am I the only one?

Which weapons?
The DLC ones have one or two more conditions then normal.
Also most levels don't let you evolve until a certain time.

It was a pain to get Flash Arrow to evolve. I had maxed it out plus its two needed items but it took several attempts to evolve. It was weird but eventually I got it.

early game chests aren't eligible to evolve weapons, just fyi if you're killing the first couple bosses and saving their chests for later only to find nothing evolves when you meet the criteria and pick it up later

This depends on the map, you'll just have to memorize which ones let you evolve early, it's not a general rule.

For example the glowing bat that spawns at minute 1 in Mad Forest has a chance to drop a chest and if it does you can use it to get an early evo, all the other pre-10 minute mark chests won't give you one.

There's also chests that can evolve more than one weapon at a time and the green reapers drop chests of varying quality (number of evos that you can get from them) depending on how you kill them. Using a minecart will drop a regular chest while the rosary and Gorgeous Moon will drop a high quality one.

There's also a secret character that can find evos in any chest. Dont know if you have him already (starts with a G, unlock is related to boss rash) and I dont wanna spoil it for ya.
A bit of context:

I play a couple of games in with a release of the new DLC (Tides of the Foscari).
I play with every new character from the DLC, Red Death, and Big Trouser in the new Stages of the DLC.
Every time I have the same problem: Some weapons don't evolve.

I think was always Santa Water but I'm not quite sure; so take that with a grain of salt.
This image es from my last run, I was playing with Je-Ne-Viv in Lake Foscari.
I have 232hs in the game and I have no clue if it's a bug or something else.

Go to the collection and make sure you didn't accidentally seal the evo.
OMG! I pretty sure you are right. I fell soooo dumb in this moment

I did not even know you could seal an evo. But you helped me out with a problem of one of my weapons too. Thanks!!

you can even seal undiscovered items, meaning you might accidentally seal a new weapon then wonder why you never got offered it.
