Weight Painting
'Add Modifier' still does not Apply.

Tools > Brush
・F Blur : Add weight or blur the border
・F Mix : Add weight
・F Subtract : Turn off the weight

I mainly use 3 brushes.
Adjust Weight, Radius, Strength.
My recommendation is to set Strength to 0.2


Alt + Left-drag : Painting with a gradient in a straight line
Ctrl + Alt + Left-drag : Painting with a gradient in a circular

Select the blue bones and weight paint.
It is good to paint based on the length of the highlighted part.
You don't have to be nervous about the boundaries. You will fix it later.

Select the green ring and rotate with R.
Did the sleeves move correctly? Check them one by one.

Fix of the joint portion.
It blurs or strengthens the boundary line, balancing left and right.

This is trying to fix the armpit weight.
I paint with only left dragging with the mouse.
If that doesn't work, try to wireframe with Z.

Export

File > Export > Collada(Avastar)(.dae)

After uploading the mesh, move your body and check the rigging.
If you find a problem, go back to Blender and fix it.
Repeat this many times.
