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

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

In *Black Ops II*, obtaining the Staff of Ice involved collecting three specific parts. Fortunately, in *Black Ops 6*, players can also get the Staff of Ice directly from the Mystery Box on The Tomb map. However, this method depends heavily on RNG (random number generation) luck. Using the “Wunderbar!” GobbleGum can slightly improve your odds, but there's no guarantee, especially since the Ray Gun is also available in the box. To avoid relying on luck, here’s how to build the Staff of Ice:

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

The first part you'll need for the Staff of Ice is the Monocle. This part is dropped by the first Shock Mimic you kill in a match on The Tomb. Once the Shock Mimic is defeated, simply walk over to the Monocle and press the interact button to add it to your inventory.

The next two parts, including the Head Piece, involve similar processes and require surviving a lockdown. These parts can be acquired in any order. To get the Head Piece, head to the Neolithic Catacombs. You'll need to find the wall with the cave painting and shoot the sections of the lit wall. If the wall isn’t lit, use the Dark Aether lanterns around the area. Shoot a lantern with purple fire, and after a short time, the fire will move to another lantern. Once the lantern closest to the painted wall is lit, you can see the symbols.

If the lanterns aren't spawned, visit the Dark Aether Nexus and return. If they still don’t appear, progress a few rounds. The symbols on the wall correspond to Roman Numerals and need to be shot in order from I to X. If you make a mistake, you can resume from the last correct symbol. Use a bullet weapon to avoid messing up with splash or explosive damage. Once completed, a constellation will light up, triggering a lockdown. Survive the lockdown, and you can collect the Head Piece from the mural.

The final piece is the Staff itself, found in the Tombs room. Similar to the Head Piece, shoot the lanterns until the purple fire reaches the correct location near the Bull Mural. Shoot the Roman Numerals in ascending order from I to VIII. This action will also trigger a lockdown. Survive it to obtain the Staff piece, which you can then take 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 three parts collected, head to the Dark Aether Nexus through the Door to Nowhere. At the central structure, place the parts by holding the interact button. This action will initiate an onslaught of zombies and special enemies trying to prevent the Staff's assembly. Defend the Staff using perks, upgraded weapons, and GobbleGums like Kill Joy and Free Fire to boost your damage output. Successfully defend the Staff, and it will be assembled and ready for use.

And that’s how to get the Staff of Ice on The Tomb in *Black Ops 6* Zombies. Enjoy your powerful new weapon!
