Jingle Hells in *Black Ops 6* is not just a holiday-themed map; it brings a fresh twist to the gameplay of Liberty Falls by altering the progression and upgrade systems. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to upgrade your weapons and acquire Ammo Mods in the Jingle Hells mode of *Black Ops 6* Zombies.
How To Upgrade Your Weapon in Jingle Hells in Black Ops 6 Zombies
In the standard *Black Ops 6* Zombies mode, players use Salvage at the Arsenal Machine to upgrade their weapons. However, Jingle Hells does not feature this machine. Instead, players must collect Aether Tools to enhance their arsenal. These consumables come in various color-coded rarity levels, and using them on your weapon will elevate it to that specific rarity tier. For instance, applying a Purple (Legendary) Aether Tool will upgrade your weapon to Legendary status.
In Jingle Hells, you can acquire Aether Tools through several methods:
- Visit the Church and aim a grenade at the zombie head atop the spire. A successful hit will make the head vanish and cause zombies to fall from the sky, dropping loot upon landing. Among the loot, you'll find an Aether Tool. The tool's rarity increases with the round number at which you perform this action.
- Access the Bank Vault and use Loot Keys to unlock the safety deposit boxes. These boxes may contain Aether Tools of varying rarities.
- Participate in S.A.M. Trials and strive for the highest reward tier, as these trials offer a chance to obtain Aether Tools.
- Utilize a Hidden Power GobbleGum to instantly upgrade your weapon to Legendary Rarity.
- Weapons obtained from the Mystery Box, Wall Buys, and Holiday Presents will naturally increase in rarity as the rounds progress.
How To Get Ammo Mods in Jingle Hells in Black Ops 6 Zombies
In Jingle Hells, the Cryo Freeze Ammo Mod is the sole available modification. This consumable can be equipped to your weapons and is primarily found within Holiday Presents. As rounds advance, these presents tend to yield higher rarity rewards.
To obtain Holiday Presents, consider these strategies:
- They may randomly drop when you kill enemies.
- The Naughty or Nice powerup, resembling a stocking, can also yield them. Picking it up will display a UI banner; a "Nice" banner means multiple Holiday Presents, while a "Naughty" banner triggers a swarm of vermin enemies.
- The S.A.M. Machine, when it appears in Jingle Hells, will be surrounded by several Holiday Presents.

How To Get Equipment and Support in Jingle Hells in Black Ops 6 Zombies
Similar to the Arsenal Machine, the Workbench is also missing from Jingle Hells, preventing players from crafting equipment or Support items like Chopper Gunners, Mutant Injections, or Self Revives using Salvage. However, you can still obtain these crucial items through various means:
- Equipment may drop as loot when you eliminate enemies.
- Holiday Presents have a chance to contain equipment.
- Support items can be looted from Special and Elite enemies.
- S.A.M. Trials can reward you with both equipment and Support items.
- The Bank Vault's Deposit Boxes might hold equipment and Support items.
These are the key methods to secure Weapon Upgrades, Ammo Mods, equipment, and Support in Jingle Hells in *Black Ops 6* Zombies.
