Age of Sigmar evolutions

How does the Ghal Maraz chain work?

The collected chart describes two evolutions, not a direct jump from the starting hammer to Ghal Maraz:

1. Stormcharged Hammer + Tactical Rock at maximum level → Uskavar the Sunderer.
2. Uskavar the Sunderer + Null Pendant at maximum level → Ghal Maraz.

The Steam achievement Great Shatterer asks you to evolve Uskavar the Sunderer. That supports Uskavar being evolvable, but the achievement does not itself confirm the passive ingredients. The recipe remains attributed to the community chart.

Why does an old guide say Sabaton?

Unknown Traveller’s 7 October demo discussion names Sabaton for Tempest Axes → Whirlwind Axes. The collected November chart instead names Boot. The lookup uses the November chart’s name and preserves the older report in the row note.

We have not confirmed whether this is a renamed item, a localisation difference or a gameplay change. Match the wording and version on your own screen rather than treating either name as a universally valid instruction for every release.

Which weapons appear in both settings?

Nuln Oil + Hourglass → Mordant Earth and D6 Dice + Scatter Die → Sustained Fire Dice appear in both universe lists. The 19 AoS entries also include the second hammer stage; this is not a claim of 19 separate starting weapons.

For other cross-setting ingredient names, use the combined lookup. Shared ingredient names alone do not establish that all characters or weapons can be mixed in one run.

What if my pair does not evolve?

Follow the sequence described by Petersilie: max the base weapon, carry the paired passive and then look for an eligible evolution chest. Check MAX LEVEL labels before assuming a passive only needs level 1. Exact timing and drop guarantees have not been established for every row.

If the problem is unlocking or finding the passive itself, recipe compatibility will not answer that question. See items and relics for the distinction between recipe passives, pickups and exploration unlocks.
