Fans can get the most out of custom weapon modifications if they’ve invested in the weapon engineering skill, though they’ll also need a decent supply of resources to gain access tothe best mods inStarfield. The benefits of custom-made weapons can be well worth it though, as is evidenced by one post shared by the player iSwearSheWas56 which shows them turning their Coachman shotgun into a lead-spewing violation of the Geneva convention. The clip shows this weapon firing clusters of explosive shells which burst and rain down even more explosive fragments onto enemies, which allows the player to quickly and efficiently wipe out a group of pirates without even having to aim. This is made possible thanks to the Hornet Nest mod the weapon uses, a level 3 ammunition mod which can be applied to certain weapons at a workbench.
