New mechanics, new items in the loot pool including a combat blade, new vehicles, upgraded graphics, and other features and content are also available in Chapter 5 Season 1.
Next week, The Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival game modes will be added to the game, enough content to keep players entertaining whilst the Epic Games employees take the rest of the year off.
One aspect of the game that hasn’t changed with the release of the new chapter is the quest system. Players can easily complete most of the quest sets.
On launch, there are two main sets of quests; kickstart quests, and the normal weekly quests with the first week of quests already available to complete.
One of the quests requires players to apply a Weapon Mod at a Mod Bench. Here’s how you can complete the quest including where to find mod benches in Fortnite and where to get Weapon Mods.
Where to Find Weapon Mod Bench in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1
There are five locations on the map where players can find a mod bench on the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1: Underground map.
You can find a Mod Bench inside of the vaults. There is at least one vault at the locations where bosses can be found. The boss locations are marked on the map, making it easier to find a Mod Bench.
In order to open and access the vaults in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1, you’ll need to have a Society Medallion.
To get your hands on a Society Medallion, you’ll either need to eliminate an opponent that is carrying one (which will be marked on your map), or you’ll need to defeat one of the five bosses.
Again, the boss locations are marked when you open the Fortnite map. When you defeat the boss and get your hands on a Society Medallion, you can head to the lock scanner and you’ll be allowed in.
How to Apply a Weapon Mod in Fortnite
Once you’re in, you should find the mod bench on the left side of the vault. Simple walk up to the Weapon Mod Bench and interact with it.
Click the interact button you’ve set to use a Weapon Mod Bench in Fortnite and then apply any weapon mod you desire.
You’ll need gold bars to be able to apply a weapon mod at a mod bench. Once you’ve done the above, you’ll have completed the challenge.
