To start playing with augmentations, you'll need to visit a research station, which you can find in the Tempest and in the tech lab on the upper floor of the Nexus' docking bay. Unlike mods, augmentations are permanent additions you add while crafting a weapon or piece of armor - and they can make a huge difference.

Now, that's not the only way to modify your equipment. Selecting it will remove it from its existing home and place it on your current weapon. If there's a green checkmark beside a mod, it means it's already equipped on one of your weapons. Select the slot into which you want to place the mod and pick the mod you want to equip. To equip a mod from a loadout station, tap the corresponding button - square on PS4 - while hovering over an equipped weapon you want to mod.
