How do you get Thorn of the White Rose?
This pairing is for Warhammer 40,000 runs. A familiar passive can lead to a different recipe in the other universe, so check the universe label before building around it.
Thorn of the White Rose evolution checklist: use the Spear of the Faithful, carry Chaos Sigil at any level, and open a boss or elite chest. This is the core requirement set for the Thorn of the White Rose evolution in Warhammer 40,000 runs.
- Base weapon: Spear of the Faithful; max level is required before its evolution step.
- Passive: Chaos Sigil at any level.
- Chest: a boss or elite chest after the requirements are ready.
- Result: replaces the base weapon (standard evolution).
Step by step
Keep the weapon, passive and eligible chest requirements in view together. A matching weapon and passive do not trigger an evolution by themselves; the chest is the final step.
- Level the Spear of the Faithful to max. Most weapons max out at level 8.
- Pick up the Chaos Sigil. Any level works, so you do not need to upgrade it.
- Open a boss or elite chest. Kill a boss or elite enemy and open the chest it drops. If the weapon and passive are both ready, the chest gives you Thorn of the White Rose.
