[Cheese_Cake]

Hey Tennos, I got lots of mods but only certain available to upgrade in WF and weapons. Why ?

[zghaun]

some mods are for specific weapons and companions

[NocheLuz]

Mods are categorized based on their use. Weapon mods can only work with weapons, not warframes. The weapon mod also divides into Rifle/Shotgun/Sniper etc. Some mods are exclusive to each weapon. They cannot be slotted into other weapons except their intended weapon.

You cannot see mods that are unable to be slotted into the weapons/warframes you are modding/upgrading.

The mod themselves are put into categories:

Warframe

Primary

Secondary

Melee

Within those category, some of the mods are further categorize:

Aura mods for warframe

Exilus mods for warframe/weapons(exclude melee)

Stance mod exclusive to melee and exalted melee. With new update, adding new mod type to melee are Tennokai.

Augment mods for warframe and weapon to change how an ability or how the weapon function.

Within the weapon mods category, alot of it will be usuable within its weapon type, however there are specific mods that are usable only for specific type and/or weapon. Like there being Cold damage mod for rifle and Cold damage mod for shotgun.
