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

Unlock the Staff of Ice in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies: A Comprehensive Guide

The Tomb map in Black Ops 6 introduces a new Wonder Weapon: the Staff of Ice, a returning favorite from Black Ops II's Origins. While you can try your luck with the Mystery Box (and potentially enhance your odds with "Wunderbar!" GobbleGum), guaranteeing its acquisition requires crafting it from three parts. This guide details the process.

Can You Get the Staff of Ice from the Mystery Box?

Yes, there's a chance, but it relies heavily on RNG. The Ray Gun is also a possibility, making it a gamble. Crafting is the reliable method.

Crafting the Staff of Ice:

The Staff of Ice requires three components: the Monocle, the Head Piece, and the Staff itself.

1. Obtaining the Monocle:

This is the easiest part. 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:

Navigate to the Neolithic Catacombs. Locate 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 painting. This will reveal Roman numerals (I-X). Shoot them in ascending order. Incorrect shots won't reset progress; simply continue from the last correctly hit numeral. Use a bullet weapon; splash or explosive damage can disrupt the sequence. Successfully completing this activates a lockdown. Survive the ensuing zombie onslaught to claim the Head Piece.

3. Obtaining the Staff Piece:

Proceed to the Tombs room. Manipulate the Dark Aether lanterns until one illuminates the Bull Mural (head facing left). This reveals Roman numerals (I-VIII). Shoot them in ascending order, triggering a lockdown. Survive the wave to obtain the Staff piece.

4. Assembling the Staff of Ice:

Access the Dark Aether Nexus. At the central structure, place all three components. A final wave of enemies will attack; defend the assembly point until the Staff of Ice is complete. Consider using GobbleGums like Kill Joy and Free Fire to aid your defense.
