Weapon Evolution and the Level Cap
Weapons gain about 3 percent damage per level, up to 30 percent at level 10. Most then evolve into a new weapon. Pandora's Blade does not evolve; its cap is level 100. The Trident does not evolve either; at max level a piece breaks off and becomes a Trident Key. Evolution at level 10 is automatic.

What the percent means
The 3 percent per level is the weapons guide's rule for the normal track, and a community sheet repeats the same curve. I am applying it only to weapons that guide says cap at 10. Pandora is the exception that guide and a second Pandora guide both isolate: no evolution, a ceiling of 100, and no published damage at that ceiling. I will not multiply 3 percent by 100 and pretend that is its final power.
Nine evolved forms show up across the sheets. Five of them have a base weapon I can name, and those five are the table. The other four are marked on a community endgame list without a base I have checked twice, so they stay out.
Spirit Oil
Players name Spirit Oil as the item that pushes a weapon's progress when use alone is slow. I have one discussion for that role and no count of oils per level. The item still appears on the items page as a single-source row.
FAQ
Do I choose the evolution?
The guides say it happens at level 10 by itself. I have no menu that asks you to confirm.
What is the max weapon level?
10 for a normal weapon, 100 for Pandora's Blade. The Trident's max is the moment it sheds the key.
