i woudl start by bing able to do hammerons and pulloffs with your left hand without having to pick
next i would learn a single string tapping like e-----12tp5h8--- (tap 12 puilloff to 5 and hammeron the 8th) be able to do that with each finger up with speed and accurandy start slowly the ring and pinky are kinda hard
then i would go through some scales you know but by tapping and skipping everyother note like 1 3 2 4 3 5 4 6 etc
do this for a while to be able to play with each finger in your right hand
by now you should have pretty good control over all 8 fingers so make up your own licks if you need anymore help just ask
