Alright, let's talk about souping up your weapons in Dead Island 2. You'll find these things called Mods, and they're super important for making your weapons hit harder and do some nasty elemental stuff. You can craft these at any workbench, but you'll need the right materials. Keep an eye out for Scrap, Fasteners, Electronics, and other bits and bobs. One thing to remember: if you slap an elemental mod on a weapon, like the Electrocutor for Shock damage, it'll convert ALL of that weapon's damage to that element. This is a double-edged sword, because zombies that are immune to that element, like a Shocking Walker to Shock damage, will become completely immune to that weapon. So, make sure you've got a good mix of elemental damage types on your weapons to handle any situation! Here's a rundown of the Melee Weapon Mod Blueprints you can find: ## Electrocutor Mod This mod adds Shock Damage to your weapon, and with successive hits, it can even Electrify your targets. ### Melee | Rarity | Image | Description | Fabrication | |---|---|---|---| | Uncommon | !DI2 Uncommon Melee Electrocutor Mod | Converts your weapon to inflict SHOCK DAMAGE and gives a minor damage boost.
