Can someone explain Awakening Safi weapons?

[Mr. Boris]

So for example, I got the LBG Aquashot from the siege and got some dracolite to upgrade it. I get a random ability and the option to store hidden potential? I also got a Barioth essence which I don't think is much use to LBG

I don't exactly know what to do in these.

You just keep rolling it until you get the stats that you want. You can either do it the slow upgrade way by taking all the skill you want at one star and upping it from there, or you can keep storing until you get a 5 star skill.

1. Upgrade the weapon using dracolite

2. If you use a 50 point dracolite, and your weapon only needs 3, it will upgrade up to 16 time, or until you used up all that 50 point during an upgrade

3. SOME weapon abilities can only spawn if you have an inferior abilities before it, for example, if you want a recoil supressor, you might want to keep deviation supressor, since deviation can be upgraded to recoil

4. Technique skills are mostly random, but it maybe have an RNG to it,

5. These are most vital abilities you need if you want to build meta weapon, prioritize these skills before you insert attack up or stat buffing skill

LBG/HBG : suppressors, ammo abilities
Gunlance : shot type
Frostcraft : frostcraft obviously
HH : note skills
Switch axe : phial skills

6. Skills like sharpness, attack, affinity & element can be upgraded up to level 6, so instead of looking for a lv6 attack, just get any attack & use dracolite to pull a lv5 or get a lv5

7. You can always overwrite skills with anything, this is encouraged if you can't seem to get skills you want

8. Some skills have different color to it, but your weapon can only have 1 rainbow skill at once, so pick what you like most

That's for guns, correct? So I have to put a deviation surpressor on the bowgun mods or is it on the awakening ability itself?
