Unlock the Staff of Ice in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies: A Comprehensive Guide
The Tomb, the newest Call of Duty Zombies map, introduces the formidable Staff of Ice, a returning Wonder Weapon from Black Ops II's Origins. While luck might grant you the Staff from the Mystery Box (enhanced by the "Wunderbar!" GobbleGum), this guide details the guaranteed crafting method.
Can You Find the Staff of Ice in the Mystery Box?
Yes, but it's entirely RNG-dependent. The Ray Gun also competes for a slot, making the chances slim. Crafting guarantees acquisition.
Crafting the Staff of Ice: A Step-by-Step Guide
The Staff of Ice requires three components: the Monocle, the Head Piece, and the Staff itself.
1. Obtaining the Monocle:
Eliminate the first Shock Mimic encountered in a match. The Monocle will drop; interact with it to add it to your inventory.
2. Acquiring the Head Piece:
- Locate the Mural: Navigate to the Neolithic Catacombs and find the wall with the cave painting.
- Illuminate the Mural: If the wall isn't lit, activate Dark Aether lanterns in the area until one illuminates the mural, revealing Roman numerals.
- Solve the Puzzle: Shoot the numerals in ascending order (I to X). Incorrect shots don't reset progress; simply resume from the last correct shot. Use a standard bullet weapon; avoid splash or explosive damage.
- Survive the Lockdown: Completing the puzzle triggers a lockdown. Defend against zombies and special enemies until it ends. The Head Piece will then appear.
3. Securing the Staff Piece:
- Locate the Bull Mural: Go to the Tombs room.
- Illuminate the Mural: Activate Dark Aether lanterns until the one closest to the Bull Mural (facing left) is lit, revealing Roman numerals.
- Solve the Puzzle: Shoot the numerals in ascending order (I to VIII).
- Survive the Lockdown: A lockdown ensues; survive the onslaught to obtain the Staff Piece.
4. Assembling the Staff of Ice:
Once you possess all three components, proceed to the Dark Aether Nexus. Place the pieces on the central structure. A final wave of enemies will attack; defend the Staff until it's fully assembled. Utilize perks, upgraded weapons, and GobbleGums (like Kill Joy and Free Fire) for enhanced survivability.
Congratulations! You've successfully crafted the Staff of Ice.
