Shanoa unlock guide: evolve Iron Ball and Alucard Spear

Quick answer: evolve Iron Ball and Alucard Spear

Shanoa unlocks after you evolve both Iron Ball and Alucard Spear. The two evolutions do not need to happen in the same run, so you can complete one recipe at a time.

Who this guide is for

• You want the exact requirement for unlocking Shanoa.
• You are unsure whether both evolutions must be completed in one run.
• You need the passive item for either weapon.

Unlock steps

1. Evolve Iron Ball

1. Obtain Iron Ball and raise it to level 8.
2. Hold Armor during the same run.
3. Open an evolution-eligible chest to obtain Wrecking Ball.

2. Evolve Alucard Spear

1. Obtain Alucard Spear and raise it to level 8.
2. Hold Wings during the same run.
3. Open an evolution-eligible chest to obtain Thunderbolt Spear.

After both evolutions have been recorded, confirm the Shanoa unlock after the run. If one recipe was completed earlier, focus only on the remaining weapon.

If Shanoa does not unlock

• Confirm that both Iron Ball and Alucard Spear have been evolved.
• Pair Iron Ball with Armor and Alucard Spear with Wings.
• Open an evolution-eligible chest after each weapon reaches level 8.
• Obtaining the base weapon alone does not complete the condition.
