A new *Call of Duty* Zombies map brings with it the exciting return of a fan-favorite Wonder Weapon: the Staff of Ice, originally from *Black Ops II*’s Origins map. Now, in *Black Ops 6* Zombies on The Tomb, players can harness the icy power of this iconic weapon. Here’s how to acquire the Staff of Ice and make your mark 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 required players to collect three specific parts. Fortunately, *Black Ops 6* simplifies this process by allowing players to potentially obtain the Staff of Ice directly from the Mystery Box on The Tomb map. However, this method depends heavily on RNG (Random Number Generator) luck. Even with the "Wunderbar!" GobbleGum, which can influence the odds, there’s no guarantee you’ll get the Staff of Ice, especially with the Ray Gun also in the mix. To bypass the luck factor, let’s explore how to build the Staff of Ice step-by-step.

The next two parts, the Head Piece and the Staff Piece, involve similar puzzles and survival challenges, and can be acquired in any order. To get the Head Piece, navigate to the Neolithic Catacombs section of the map. Here, you'll find a wall with a cave painting. To reveal the painting, you must illuminate it using the Dark Aether lanterns scattered around the area. Shoot a lantern with purple fire until it relocates to the lantern closest to the painted wall. Once illuminated, shoot the symbols on the wall in ascending order of Roman Numerals (I to X). If you make a mistake, you can resume from the last correct symbol. Successfully completing this step will light up a constellation on the wall, triggering a lockdown. Survive this onslaught of zombies and special enemies, and you can collect the Head Piece from the mural.

For the Staff Piece, head to the Tombs room. Repeat the process with the lanterns until the purple fire reaches the lantern near the Bull Mural, with the bull facing left, charging at Romans. Once the mural is illuminated, shoot the Roman Numerals in order (I to VIII). This action also initiates a lockdown. Survive the zombie attacks, and you'll be able to claim the Staff Piece. With all three parts in hand, head to the Dark Aether Nexus to assemble the Staff of Ice.

To complete the assembly of the Staff of Ice, open the Door to Nowhere and proceed to the Dark Aether Nexus. Approach the central structure and interact to place the Monocle, Head Piece, and Staff Piece. This action will trigger an intense zombie onslaught aimed at disrupting the assembly process. Defend the Staff of Ice from zombies, special, and possibly elite enemies. Stock up on perks, upgrade your weapons, and consider using GobbleGums like Kill Joy and Free Fire to enhance your defense. Successfully fend off the attackers, and the Staff of Ice will be yours to wield.

And that’s how you obtain the Staff of Ice on The Tomb in *Black Ops 6* Zombies.
