Mod Choices for Weapons
Different weapons will need to make use of different mods to make them work. It’s all about the perfect pairing to bring the most damage.
- Heavy Weapon: Any Blast or Lightning mod will be perfect for Heavy ones.
- Fast Weapons: Go with anything Toxic or Bleeds to create a stacking effect for the weapons.
Stacking Mods Effect
You should also pay attention to stacking when using the Tips and Shaft mod for the weapon. If the mods share the same damage type, then they will stack. A Fire Tip mod will stack with a Fire Shaft mod, leading to more elemental damage in the game.
