In any case, let us say that you have gone to the Market and bought a Braton automatic rifle, and now want to know how to build it up to carry you through the first portion of the star chart. Alternatively, you can always try your hand at trading for rarer mods, such as the dual-stat elementals, which not only increase the base elemental damage output of your weapon, but also increase its status chance, but we'll get to that a bit later. In case you really need a truly basic mod, such as the aforementioned Serration, veteran players usually have several dozen extra copies and will be more than happy to help a new player by straight-up giving you one.

Mods are rarity-dependant, of course, and some will need to be farmed out.

The most important ones, such as Serration (damage boost), Point Strike (critical chance increase), elementals and the like, will drop in regular gameplay scenarios, and can be found by killing enemies, destroying crates, completing special objectives and such. First things first - mods are virtually everywhere in Warframe.
