How To Get Weapon Upgrades and Ammo Mods in Jingle Hells in Black Ops 6 Zombies

by Liam Jan 23,2025

Jingle Hells, the festive Black Ops 6 Zombies mode, offers a unique twist on weapon progression and upgrades. This guide details how to upgrade weapons and acquire Ammo Mods in this holiday-themed map.

Weapon Upgrades in Jingle Hells

Forget the Arsenal Machine; it's absent in Jingle Hells. Instead, you'll rely on Aether Tools, consumable items with varying rarity levels (color-coded). Using an Aether Tool upgrades your weapon to that rarity tier (e.g., a Purple Aether Tool grants Legendary rarity). Here's how to obtain them:

  • Church Spire: Toss a grenade at the zombie head atop the church spire. Defeating it releases zombies that drop loot, including Aether Tools. Higher rounds yield higher rarity tools.
  • Bank Vault: Loot Keys unlock safety deposit boxes within the Bank Vault, which may contain Aether Tools.
  • S.A.M. Trials: Completing these trials, especially at higher reward tiers, offers a chance to obtain Aether Tools.
  • Hidden Power GobbleGum: Instantly upgrades your weapon to Legendary rarity.
  • Mystery Box, Wall Buys, Holiday Presents: Weapons acquired from these sources increase in rarity as rounds progress.

Acquiring Ammo Mods in Jingle Hells

Currently, only the Cryo Freeze Ammo Mod is available in Jingle Hells. It drops as a consumable item. The primary method to obtain it is by opening Holiday Presents, which contain random loot with higher rarity chances in later rounds.

Holiday Presents can be obtained in several ways:

  • Enemy Drops: Killing enemies sometimes yields Holiday Presents.
  • Naughty or Nice Power-up: This power-up grants either a "Nice" or "Naughty" status. "Nice" drops multiple presents; "Naughty" spawns numerous vermin enemies.
  • S.A.M. Machine: When active, the S.A.M. Machine spawns several Holiday Presents nearby.

Equipment and Support in Jingle Hells

The Workbench is also missing, eliminating Salvage-based equipment crafting. However, equipment and Support items (like Chopper Gunners, etc.) can still be found:

  • Enemy Drops: Killing enemies, especially Special and Elite enemies, can drop equipment and Support items.
  • Holiday Presents: These presents have a chance to contain equipment.
  • S.A.M. Trials: These trials can reward equipment and Support.
  • Bank Vault Deposit Boxes: These boxes might contain equipment and Support items.
