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 return of the powerful Staff of Ice, originally featured in Black Ops II. While you can try your luck with the Mystery Box (enhanced by the "Wunderbar!" GobbleGum), crafting the Staff guarantees its acquisition. This guide details the process.
Can You Get the Staff of Ice from the Mystery Box?
Yes, there's a chance! However, it relies on RNG, and the Ray Gun also competes for the same slot. Crafting is the reliable method.
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. These can be obtained in any order.
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. Obtaining the Head Piece:
- Locate the Mural: Navigate to the Neolithic Catacombs and find the wall with the cave painting. If the wall isn't illuminated, activate Dark Aether lanterns in the area until one is positioned near the mural.
- Solve the Puzzle: Shoot the Roman numerals on the illuminated wall in ascending order (I to X). Incorrect shots won't reset progress; simply continue from the last correct one. Use a standard bullet weapon to avoid mishaps from splash or explosive damage.
- Survive the Lockdown: Completing the puzzle triggers a lockdown. Defend yourself until it ends to claim the Head Piece.
3. Obtaining the Staff Piece:
- Locate the Mural: Go to the Tombs room. Activate Dark Aether lanterns until one is near the Bull Mural (head facing left).
- Solve the Puzzle: Shoot the Roman numerals in ascending order (I to VIII).
- Survive the Lockdown: Successfully completing the puzzle initiates another lockdown. Survive the onslaught to obtain the Staff piece.
4. Assembling the Staff of Ice:
Once you have all three components, head to the Dark Aether Nexus. Interact with the central structure to place the pieces. A 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 to enhance your survival chances.
Congratulations! You now possess the Staff of Ice.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
