Another surprise update, and yet another brand-new weapon for vampire survivor fans to sink their teeth in. Normally the holiday season doesn’t begin until November, but developers poncle are bringing the festivities early this year. So let’s grab some milk and cookies and figure out how to unlock and evolve Santa Javelin in Vampire Survivors.
Vampire Survivors — How to unlock Santa Javelin
Acquiring the Santa Javelin is done in the same way as most other weapons in Vampire Survivors. To unlock the Santa Javelin, you first have to unlock the new character, Santa Ladonna. Santa Ladonna’s starting weapon is the Santa Javelin, and using it is directly tied to unlocking the weapon for other characters. And what better stage to use the new character on, than the brand new Laborratory level.
So once you’ve started a level, you must reach level 7 with Santa Ladonna in order to unlock the Santa Javelin for other characters. This should take you no time at all, and you can even work towards unlocking the Carlo Cart bonus stage should you choose to go to the Laborratory. Now that you have the weapon, let’s focus on evolving it.
How to evolve Santa Javelin
Evolving weapons in Vampire Survivors consist of combining them with a passive item and then leveling it up to meet the evolution requirements. The same can be said in this case, as you’ll need to get a max Clover item to evolve the Santa Javelin. Clovers are found in chests, and can also be picked up around certain maps. And if you’re just starting in Vampire Survivors, you’ll want to farm a lot of Gold to afford upgrades and new characters.
