Killing Floor 3 offers signature weapons for every Perk inside the game, but you can improve them with the addition of mods.
The upgrade system in the third installment has undergone slight changes from what we are used to in KF2. However, the new system of upgrades allows you to make in-depth customizations to your weapons. Let’s quickly take a look at how the system works, what’s the best way to mod, and how to use the customized layouts in live games.

How to upgrade weapons in Killing Floor 3?
The role of upgrades is vital, and the process begins when you start earning crafting materials. There are different materials available in Killing Floor 3, and they drop from Zeds. The drop rates are random, but a few successful runs will set up your inventory nicely.
Next, we go to the central portal and open Shop. Switch the tabs to go to Armory. Here, you’ll get all available customization options. Select a weapon from your chosen Perk (or from the other ones), and proceed to create a custom loadout.
You can mod all the parts of a gun. You can create multiple mods for a specific part; only one can be applied at a time for the slot. Once you’ve equipped the mods, your customized weapon is ready. However, you’ll have to complete a few extra steps before you can use your modified gun to mow down the undead.
As cool as mods are, they will raise the amount of Dosh required to purchase them. The extent of the rise in cost will depend on how many mods you’re using in your modified loadout.
How to save and use custom loadouts in Killing Floor 3?
Once you’ve created the mods, you can apply your desired ones (in case you’ve created multiple options for a single part). Next, you have to save your custom loadout by applying a name. When you’re saving the weapon, you’ll be able to see the modified cost in Dosh. Customized weapons will always cost more than their vanilla counterparts, but they’re going to be far more effective.
Once saved, your customized version will overwrite the vanilla version. Next, keep clearing waves till you make enough Dosh, and then use them to purchase your modified loadout from the Trader pod.
