Final Fantasy 7 Remake Weapon Abilities Guide
Weapons have latent abilities in FF7R. This Final Fantasy 7 Remake Weapon Abilities Guide tells you where to find each type of weapon, the weapon abilities associated with the weapon, and how you can unlock the latent power of the weapons to make them permanent abilities.
Once you reach Seventh Heaven and have Tifa escort you around town, you’ll eventually pick up some mercenary work taking down some monsters. Once these are cleared out, and after you have delivered the Water Filters, you can speak with the Weapon Shop owner to buy and sell weapons. Weapons that you equip earn proficiency over time. Once a weapon is fully proficient, the ability it offers is unlocked permanently, whether the weapon is equipped or not.
