Bethesda’s AAA titles have always focused on making their games as interactive as possible. Their latest release, Starfield, is no different in this regard. You can modify or mod your weapons to unlock different perks; your class & skill choices also affect the type of mod you can do and the bonuses you get.

Most players don’t know or understand how to get mods in Starfield. This is due to the fact that the modding system in Starfield is a bit different than other crafting systems you encounter in the game.

But don’t worry, that’s where this guide comes in. In this Starfield guide, we will discuss what weapon mods are and how you can utilize them throughout your adventure through space.

So, without further ado, let’s dive into the details, shall we?

First things first, weapon mods aren’t items that you can directly add to any weapon in your inventory. In Starfield, you will have to research specific mods and have some necessary skills to add them to your weapons.

Once you’ve done your research and learned the required skill, you can mod different parts of a weapon. For example, if you have a rifle, you can mod the barrel, muzzle, or optic. What you can and can’t mod will be shown in the mod slot of your weapon. Just go to a weapon mod bench and find out!

Moreover, modding options will differ from one weapon to another. Some mods can only be obtained after reaching a certain level on the skill tree or progressing to a designated story point.

What you need to obtain a mod will be listed on the mod itself, so just follow that if you want to get that certain mod for yourself.

To mod a weapon in Starfield, you will have to focus on two things:

  1. Research requirement
  2. Resource requirement

To fill in the research requirement, you will have to sit down on a research bench and research the topic that the mod requires. Some research can only be done when you have achieved certain skills. For modding, the ‘Weapon Engineering’ skill is a must if you want the best mods added to your weapons.

As for meeting the resource requirements, you can fill them in two ways. You can either get the resources from your journey through space or just buy them from Vendors. Jemison Mercantile & Midtown Minerals should be able to provide most of the resources you need for modding.

We recommend mixing buying and searching for the maximum output. If you are buying the resources, then don’t buy them until you are ready to mod, as they can be quite heavy and slow you down during playthrough.
