Special Types of Mods
Stance Mods
Stance Mods are mods specially made for melee weapons, these mods increase the capacity of the weapon and also give unique attack combos to the user. Only one stance mod can be equipped on a weapon at once.
Also, the stance has to be compatible with the melee weapon type. For example Vengeful Revenant only works with swords such as Skana, Broken War, Dakra Prime.

Nightmare Mods
Nightmare Mods are dual stat mods that can be obtained by completing nightmare mode missions.
Aura Mods
Aura Mods are Waframe mods that can be used to increase the total mod capacity. Similar to stance mods these mods can only be equipped on the Aura slot. One better thing about aura mods is that they stack with other players, so if all players are bringing corrosive projection to a mission, the enemies won’t have any armor at all.
