The Tomb, the newest map in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies, is packed with Easter eggs and puzzles. One particularly challenging puzzle involves a Bull mural, crucial for obtaining powerful weaponry, including the Ice Staff. This guide will walk you through solving it.
Locating and Solving the Bull Mural in Black Ops 6 Zombies: The Tomb

The Bull Mural puzzle is a key step in acquiring the Ice Staff Wonder Weapon. Completing it yields one of three necessary components. Located in the Tombs section, it's accessible after opening the tomb door from the starting area.
Before tackling the Bull Mural, you'll need a Pack-a-Punched weapon and to defeat a Shock Mimic to obtain a Monocle—a prerequisite for the Ice Staff assembly. Once you have the Monocle, head to the rightmost side of the Tombs area, where you’ll find purple lanterns.
Shoot all the purple lanterns until the light in front of the Bull Mural glows. Eight Roman numeral symbols will then illuminate on the bull. The puzzle requires shooting these numerals in numerical order, from one to eight.

Successfully shooting the symbols triggers a wave-based challenge. A purple orb appears, guiding you to different rooms where special zombies must be eliminated. This happens five times across various locations in The Tomb, making it challenging, especially solo. A coordinated team can significantly reduce the difficulty.
Regardless of team size, Pack-a-Punched weapons and ample Essence are vital for survival. Remember to replenish ammo between room transitions, as armored and special zombies will appear. After surviving all waves, the Ice Staff body piece drops, bringing you closer to completing the Wonder Weapon. Then, it's on to the next mural and puzzle stage.
