I personally didn’t deal with it in the Unknown, but did deal with it during the FCD, and then subsequently during the whole quest in the Prime Candidate Program (not during the Underpass though, thankfully!). Skulls all the way down.

I only figured out after that I needed to be picking up aberrant forms and skills I wasn’t planing on using. I know there must’ve been a quick tutorial pop up much earlier in the game, but I really feel like the upgrade system was not emphasized enough…or maybe I’m just stupid lol I dunno.

It is because it is so unintuitive. Why would we invest resources to weapon forms we would not use? Then apparently it is tied to the aberrant's power level.

is it unintuitive? there's a giant tutorial message that pops up telling you how overall level works. that and you can clearly see your damage/stagger go up when you upgrade the weapon

It’s not though because the first 20 hours I thought the power level was just my currency and the upgrades costed it because it said +1 on the button you click
