Use this Warhammer Survivors wiki reference to identify which game system answers your next question. Unlocking a weapon, equipping it during a run, evolving it and completing its collection entry are related tasks, but they are not interchangeable.

Warhammer Survivors Terms and Systems
Weapon: an attack in your loadout. Some weapons are used through a follower rather than held by the selected champion.
Passive: a supporting item that changes how your loadout performs. A passive and a temporary pickup serve different purposes.
Follower: an ally that attacks when weapon compatibility calls for one. Followers cannot take damage or collect items.
Status effect: a condition such as Burning, Poisoned or Oiled. Similar-looking damage effects can change movement differently: Burning speeds enemies up, while Poisoned slows them.
Extremis Boss: a faction’s major boss encounter, requiring preparation beyond simply collecting a powerful-looking loadout.
Warhammer Survivors Versions and Universes
Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar have separate characters, stages and objectives, with some shared equipment and limited progression links. A result on one side does not establish the same unlock on the other.
The full release contains over 40 characters and 75+ weapons. Lists from the October demo describe a much smaller content pool, and an old recipe or missing option should be checked against the current game. When a condition is unknown, a precise-looking number or an unlabelled screenshot does not fill that gap.
