How to Use Weapon Mods in Fortnite
To customize your weapons with mods in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1, you have to start by obtaining a Society Medallion. Next, locate a Weapon Mod Bench, typically found in the same areas as the five Society NPC bosses, where you can also find Medallions.
Once you've secured a Mod Bench, interact with it to use Gold Bars for purchasing various Weapon Mods, such as Optics, Barrels, Underbarrel, and Magazine attachments.
