Jingle Hells, the festive Black Ops 6 Zombies mode, offers a unique twist on weapon progression and upgrades. Forget the Arsenal Machine – Aether Tools are the key to weapon upgrades in this holiday-themed map.
Weapon Upgrades in Jingle Hells
Unlike standard Black Ops 6 Zombies, Jingle Hells replaces the Arsenal Machine with Aether Tools. These consumable items upgrade your weapon to the tool's rarity tier (White, Green, Blue, Purple/Legendary). Here's how to obtain them:
- Church Spire: Toss a grenade at the zombie head atop the church spire. The resulting chaos will yield loot, potentially including an Aether Tool. Higher round numbers increase the chance of a higher-rarity tool.
- Bank Vault: Loot Keys unlock safety deposit boxes in the Bank Vault, offering a chance at Aether Tools.
- S.A.M. Trials: Completing S.A.M. Trials, especially at higher reward tiers, can reward you with Aether Tools.
- Hidden Power GobbleGum: This GobbleGum instantly upgrades your weapon to Legendary rarity.
- Mystery Box, Wall Buys, Holiday Presents: Weapons obtained from these sources will increase in rarity as the round progresses.
Ammo Mods: Cryo Freeze
In Jingle Hells, the Cryo Freeze Ammo Mod is the only available option. It drops as a consumable item and is primarily obtained from:
- Holiday Presents: These presents, dropped by enemies, awarded by the Naughty or Nice power-up, or spawned by the S.A.M. machine, contain random loot, including Cryo Freeze. Higher rounds yield better loot. The "Nice" outcome from the Naughty or Nice power-up is particularly generous with Holiday Presents.
Equipment and Support Items
The Workbench's absence means no Salvage-based crafting. However, equipment and support items can still be found:
- Enemy Drops: Killing enemies, especially Special and Elite enemies, can drop equipment and support items.
- Holiday Presents: As mentioned above, these presents offer a chance at equipment and support.
- S.A.M. Trials: Successful completion can reward players with equipment and support.
- Bank Vault Deposit Boxes: These boxes offer a chance at both equipment and support items.
Mastering these methods ensures you're well-equipped to survive the festive chaos of Jingle Hells in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
