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

The thrill of diving into a new *Call of Duty* Zombies map is always exciting, especially with the introduction of a new Wonder Weapon. The Staff of Ice, a fan-favorite from *Black Ops II*'s Origins, makes a triumphant return in *Black Ops 6* Zombies. Here’s a detailed guide on how to secure the Staff of Ice in The Tomb.

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

When the Staff of Ice was first introduced in *Black Ops II* Zombies, players needed to assemble it from three parts. The same principle applies in *Black Ops 6*, but there's a twist for those eager to jump into the action in The Tomb. You can indeed obtain the Staff of Ice from the Mystery Box in this map. However, this method hinges on RNG luck. While the "Wunderbar!" GobbleGum can tilt the odds in your favor, it doesn't guarantee you'll snag the Staff of Ice, as the Ray Gun is also in the mix. For those who prefer certainty over chance, let's dive into how to build the Staff of Ice.

To start building the Staff of Ice, you'll need to collect three parts. The first part, the Monocle, is the easiest to obtain. It drops from the first Shock Mimic you kill in a match of The Tomb in *Black Ops 6*. After defeating the Shock Mimic, approach the Monocle and press the interact button to add it to your inventory.

The next two parts require similar efforts to unlock and can be obtained in any order. To get the Staff of Ice Head Piece, head to the Neolithic Catacombs section of the map. Here, you'll find a wall with a cave painting. If the wall isn't illuminated, you'll need to light it up using the Dark Aether lanterns scattered around the area. Shoot a lantern with purple fire, and it will respawn in a different lantern after a short while, usually at the start of the next round. Once the lantern closest to the painted wall is lit, the symbols on the wall become visible.

If the lanterns haven't spawned yet, visit the Dark Aether Nexus and return. If they're still not there, you might need to progress a few more rounds. The symbols on the wall correspond to Roman Numerals and must be shot in ascending order: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, and X. This step is forgiving, allowing you to resume from the last correct symbol if you make a mistake. Use a bullet weapon, as splash or explosive damage can complicate this process.

Once you've shot the symbols correctly, a constellation will light up on the wall, triggering a lockdown. Survive the onslaught of zombies and special enemies during this period. Aim to complete this step on the lowest round possible, equipped with armor, perks, and ideally a Pack-a-Punched weapon. After the lockdown, you can collect the Staff of Ice Head Piece from the mural and constellation wall.

The third part needed to craft the Staff of Ice is the Staff itself. Navigate to the Tombs room and repeat the process with the lanterns until the purple fire reaches the correct location near the Bull Mural. The mural depicts a bull charging at Romans, with its head facing left. The wall will illuminate with Roman Numerals, which you must shoot in ascending order: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, and VIII. Completing this correctly will trigger another lockdown. Survive it to claim the Staff of Ice Staff Piece, which you can then take to the Dark Aether Nexus for assembly.

With all parts in hand, head to the Dark Aether Nexus via the Door to Nowhere if you haven't already. Approach the large structure at the center of the area and use the interact button to place the three parts of the Staff of Ice. This action will trigger an onslaught of zombies, special, and possibly elite enemies attempting to disrupt the assembly process. Defend the Staff diligently, using perks, upgraded weapons, and GobbleGums like Kill Joy and Free Fire to boost your damage output.

Successfully defending the Staff of Ice will result in its complete assembly, ready for you to wield its icy power.

And that's how to get the Staff of Ice on The Tomb in *Black Ops 6* Zombies.
