Jingle Hells in *Call of Duty: Black Ops 6* Zombies isn't just a festive reskin of Liberty Falls; it shakes up weapon progression and upgrades. This guide explains how to upgrade your weapons and acquire Ammo Mods in this holiday-themed mode.

How To Upgrade Your Weapon in Jingle Hells

Unlike the standard Black Ops 6 Zombies experience, the Arsenal Machine is absent in Jingle Hells. To upgrade your weapons, you'll need Aether Tools. These consumable items come in various rarity tiers (color-coded); using a higher-tier tool upgrades your weapon to that level (e.g., a Purple/Legendary Aether Tool upgrades to Legendary rarity). Here's how to obtain them:

  • Church Spire: Throw a grenade at the zombie head atop the church spire. This will trigger a zombie drop, potentially yielding an Aether Tool. Higher rounds increase the chance of a higher-rarity tool.
  • Bank Vault: Loot Keys unlock safety deposit boxes in the Bank Vault, which may contain Aether Tools of varying rarities.
  • S.A.M. Trials: Completing these trials, especially at higher reward tiers, offers a chance to acquire Aether Tools.
  • Hidden Power GobbleGum: Instantly upgrade your weapon to Legendary rarity using this GobbleGum.
  • Mystery Box, Wall Buys, Holiday Presents: Weapons obtained from these sources will increase in rarity as the round progresses.

How To Get Ammo Mods in Jingle Hells

In Jingle Hells, the Cryo Freeze Ammo Mod is the primary, if not only, option. It drops as a consumable item. The most reliable 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 Kills: They occasionally drop from defeated enemies.
  • Naughty or Nice Power-up: The stocking-shaped power-up grants either a "Nice" or "Naughty" buff. "Nice" drops multiple presents, while "Naughty" spawns numerous vermin enemies.
  • S.A.M. Machine: When the S.A.M. Machine spawns, it often places several Holiday Presents nearby.

How To Get Equipment and Support in Jingle Hells

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

  • Enemy Kills: Equipment can drop from regular and special/elite enemies.
  • Holiday Presents: These presents can contain equipment.
  • S.A.M. Trials: These trials offer a chance to earn equipment and Support.
  • Bank Vault Deposit Boxes: These boxes may contain equipment and Support.

This covers the methods for obtaining weapon upgrades, Ammo Mods, equipment, and Support in Jingle Hells mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone are available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
