This achievement is a bit glitchy, it unlocked for me with two mods still left to unlock

Bugged achievement. It unlocked for me during an attempt to get the last rune. I had 3 mods still left to unlock.

I actually unlocked this when I still had 2 weapon mods left to unlock. Thanks for the guide as well btw.

This achievement is glitched. More often than not, it does unlock prematurely. But for me it is stuck at 91%. I have only this one left. And yes, I have IDKFA (Earn the Masteries for all weapon mods).

Not a guide but an advice !
I missed one on the 5th level, which was not there .. after researchs on the web, i found some players having the same problem.
I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it and it appeared !

A bit late, but if you're like me and had this achievement glitch out, replaying the campaign on a different save slot can* unlock it the second time around.
Basically pausing and quitting the game if it doesn't pop again, so you get multiple attempts.
It's not a fast solution BUT it worked for me so I thought it was worth sharing.
Had issue with this achievement and "Outnumbered? No Problem" (Hell Guards).
So I replayed through the entire campaign on the easiest difficulty.
The idea behind it is the same. You do a thing and see if the achievement pops/progresses.
If it doesn't, turn off the game before you hit a checkpoint.
For Hot Swapper:
As far as I can tell the achievement doesn't actually requires you to have all mods at the same time, it popped when I had ~6 mods.
Have the Xbox achievement tracker open so you can see if progress registers.
My achievement progress only advanced (~8%) when I selected the specific mod it'd failed to register the first time. At ~91% you only need 1 more.
When you find a field drone, you can select a mod, if the achievement doesn't progress you can turn off the game so you can use the same drone to pick a different mod.
I selected the mods in reverse order I did initially, but it popped when I picked a mod I picked pretty early (like 4th). So I probably just got lucky none glitched again.
Safest way is probably to avoid all mods until you've collected all weapons, earliest chance being Kandingir Sanctum. Then go through every mod, check the achievement tracker, quit game, repeat for every mod.
If this doesn't work, try this while cloud streaming.
For the Hell Guards:
Play until you've killed the first guard in any way you like.
After killing the third guard, if the achievement doesn't pop before the 'complete' prompt (top of screen).
Quit the game through the Xbox guide. You should start at the beginning of phase 2 next time you load up the game.
This way you have multiple attempts. DON'T interact with the key.
Try cloud streaming if it doesn't work.
Let me know if it works, or not.
