"Unlocking the Ice Staff in Black Ops 6 Zombies' Tomb"

With the introduction of a new *Call of Duty* Zombies map in *Black Ops 6*, fans are excited to see the return of the iconic Staff of Ice from *Black Ops II*'s Origins map. Here's a detailed guide on how to obtain the Staff of Ice on The Tomb map.

Can You Get the Staff of Ice from the Mystery Box on The Tomb? Answered

In *Black Ops II*, acquiring the Staff of Ice required players to gather three specific parts. This method remains the same in *Black Ops 6*, but there's an exciting twist for those eager to jump into the action on The Tomb. You can now also obtain the Staff of Ice directly from the Mystery Box, although this depends heavily on RNG luck. Using the "Wunderbar!" GobbleGum might tilt the odds in your favor, but remember, the Ray Gun is also in the mix, so there's no guarantee. For those who prefer a sure thing, here's how to build the Staff of Ice without relying on luck.

The first part you'll need is the Monocle, which is the easiest to obtain. In any match on The Tomb, the Monocle will drop from the first Shock Mimic you kill. Simply approach the Monocle after defeating the Shock Mimic and press the interact button to add it to your inventory.

The next two parts, the Head Piece and the Staff itself, involve similar steps and require you to solve puzzles and survive lockdowns. These parts can be collected in any order.

To get the Head Piece, navigate to the Neolithic Catacombs. Look for the wall with the cave painting. If the wall isn't lit, you'll need to use the Dark Aether lanterns scattered around the area. Shoot a lantern with purple fire, and it will respawn in another lantern after a round or so. Once the lantern nearest to the painted wall is lit, the symbols on the wall will become visible.

If the lanterns haven't spawned yet, visit the Dark Aether Nexus and return. If they're still absent, you might need to progress a few rounds.

The symbols on the wall represent Roman Numerals. Shoot them in ascending order from I to X. This step is forgiving; if you miss, you can resume from the last correct symbol. Use a bullet weapon to avoid messing up with splash or explosive damage.

Once you've shot the symbols correctly, a constellation will light up, triggering a lockdown. Survive the onslaught of zombies and special enemies during this period. It's advisable to attempt this on a lower round with sufficient armor, perks, and possibly a Pack-a-Punched weapon. After the lockdown, you can collect the Head Piece from the mural and constellation wall.

The final piece is the Staff itself, found in the Tombs room. Similar to the Head Piece, you'll need to shoot the lanterns until the purple fire reaches the correct location near the Bull Mural, where the bull's head faces left, charging at Romans. The wall will then display Roman Numerals, which you must shoot in order from I to VIII.

Completing this will trigger another lockdown. Survive it, and you'll be able to collect the Staff piece. Head to the Dark Aether Nexus to assemble the Staff of Ice.

How To Finish the Staff of Ice on The Tomb in Black Ops 6 Zombies

With all parts in hand, go to the Dark Aether Nexus and open the Door to Nowhere if you haven't already. Approach the central structure and place the three parts by holding the interact button. This action will trigger an attack from zombies, special, and possibly elite enemies trying to disrupt the assembly process. Defend the Staff long enough for it to be completed. Stock up on perks, upgrade your weapons, and consider using GobbleGums like Kill Joy and Free Fire to boost your damage output.

Successfully defending the Staff will result in its assembly, ready for you to wield.

And that's how you can obtain the Staff of Ice on The Tomb in *Black Ops 6* Zombies.
