Use the ability to gain Proficiency

In order to master a weapon and acquire its skill, you'll need to use that weapons ability several times to get the proficiency bonus. Each time you use the ability, you'll get a 10% boost to proficiency, meaning you'll need to do it ten times to acquire the skill.
