about zaws...

Soo I am farming MR and I am extremley confused as to how they exactly count towards MR. I already crafted one Zaw with Link: JAI II / Strike: BALLA / Grip SHTUNG and it didnt seem to count towards my MR? at least I cant find it on my profile. I just crafted a new Zaw but I am afraid that the same thing will happen again. 

This post is prolly really stupid but I am confused and would appreciate any serious answers and help I can get on this.

"In order to fully unlock all of a Zaw's features, players must gild their weapon. To gild a weapon, players must have a reputation rank of at least Trusted with the Ostrons, and the desired Zaw must first be leveled up to Rank 30. Afterwards, players must return to Hok's Anvil and select the Gild option under Other services, which will cost 2 Cetus Wisps and Reputation 5,000. Upon gilding the weapon, players will be asked to first add a Polarity to the weapon, and then finally give it a custom name. This process will reset the weapon's level back to Rank 0."

"Zaws have to be gilded to earn Mastery Rank points, with their progression tied to the weapon's Strike alone. For example, if a player levels up a Gilded Zaw crafted with the Balla Strike to 30, any future Zaws forged using the Balla Strike will no longer provide Mastery regardless of what combination of Grips and Links they have."

Zaws only give mastery once you "gild" them.

Also, only the strikes give MR points. Grips and links dont. So if you have a Mewan zaw and you create another Mewan one with different setup, it wont give MR again.
