Fortnite players were introduced to weapon modifications at the start of Chapter 5, and it has remained in the game throughout its entirety. While some weapons already have plenty of mods when players find them, they can freely add, remove, and change them as they please, as long as they find a Mod bench and have enough gold to do so.

Mod Bench Locations

Mods are a great way to increase a weapon's viability in-game so players should know where they can to apply them. In Chapter 5 Season 4, Mod Benches are located inside Weapon Bunkers and in the basement of the floating Loot Island.

Although there are 10 possible Mod Bench locations in Fortnite, not all of them will be accessible. There are nine Weapon Bunkers on the island, but only six of them will open once the third Storm Circle forms, the others will be locked up with chains. The Mod Bench on the floating island will always be accessible. However, it only spawns late into the game. In total, gamers can access a maximum of seven Mod Benches per match.

  • Southwest of The Underworld

  • East of Doomstadt
  • Northwest of Rescue Station
  • South of Dumpenhausen
  • Pantheon Path
  • The Wreckmill
  • South of The Raft
  • Loot Island (guaranteed spawn)

All Mod Benches will be accessible once the third Storm Circle is formed except for the Loot Island Mod Bench, which will only be available after the fourth Storm Circle starts closing.

Available Mod Bench Modifications

The Weapon Mod Bench has four mod categories: optic mods, magazine mods, underbarrel mods, and barrel mods. Players can navigate through them and decide which one fits their needs. It costs 75 gold to equip a mod.

Except for Common Weapons, Fortnite weapons will immediately spawn with one or several mods. Thankfully, it doesn't cost a dime to remove mods from a weapon. This means that if gamers find a weapon that they enjoy with a mod that they dislike, they can get rid of it for free and then apply another mod for only 75 gold bars.
