Weapon Mods Tier 1

Learn about Tier 1 Weapon Mods in Outriders. Discover how to acquire and use them to customize your gear and enhance your combat effectiveness. Essential for all classes!

Hey there, Outrider! Let's talk about weapon mods, specifically the Tier 1 ones. These are the foundational mods you'll find on your gear, and understanding them is key to building a strong character. Think of them as the first step in really customizing your loadout. What are Mods? Mods are basically passive buffs that can enhance your abilities or even change how your class skills work. You'll find them on Rare, Epic, or Legendary weapons and armor. The cool thing is, you can use them in the Crafting system to really tailor your gear to your playstyle. How to Get Mods To unlock a mod for crafting, you need to break down an item that has that specific mod on it. It's like learning a new recipe by dismantling the ingredients. Legendary gear has its own unique mods, so keep an eye out for those! Here's a quick rundown of mod tiers for weapons: * Tier 1 Weapon Mods: Found on Rare, Epic, or Legendary Weapons. * Tier 2 Weapon Mods: Found on Epic or Legendary Weapons. * Tier 3 Weapon Mods: Found on Legendary Weapons. These are usually super specific to a particular weapon. Swapping Mods Around Once you've unlocked a mod, you can put it into any weapon's mod slot, or any armor's mod slot, no matter the class. All weapon mods are universal, which is great! A Little Warning About Gear Rarity: When you're working with Epic or Legendary gear, you'll notice that one of the mod slots gets locked. You can only change one of them. This is important to remember! Also, if you upgrade a Rare piece of gear to Epic, the second mod slot you get will be locked. So, if you find a Rare item with a mod you really want in that first slot, it's often best to upgrade *that* piece to Epic. That way, you can still change the first slot, and the newly unlocked second slot can be customized. This guide focuses on the basics, but as you progress, you'll find tons of mods to experiment with. Happy hunting, and may your loot drops be legendary!
