Where to find Cryo Freeze Ammo in MW3 Zombies
You can utilize one of the three ways to find Cryo Freeze ammo in MW3 Zombies. Each way poses its own difficulty, but this sort of ammo is definitely worth it. The three ways to get Cryo Freeze ammo in MW3 Zombies are:
- Completing the Operation Deadbolt Missions: Complete the Take Up Arms mission in Welcome to Operation Deadbolt. The Cryo Freeze ammo will be available to you after the mission is done.
- Finding Aether Loot Caches: This is an RNG option. Head into an Infested Stronghold, which are usually found in buildings that have gas coming from the entrance. You will need a gas mask on entry.
- Buy them at the Elemental Pop Stations: These stations are found all over the map and are also, expensively RNG as each item bought is 2,000 points to spawn in random loot.
Cyro Freeze ammo will not be available to you after the Operation Deadbolt Missions if you have already used it once.
I’m sure one of the main reasons, if not the main reason, you may be looking for Cryo Freeze ammo is to complete the Freezer Burn challenge.
- This mission requires you to:
- Slow 50 Zombies with Cryo Freeze ammo.
- Slow 10 Hellhounds with Cryo Freeze ammo.
The best way to get Cryo Freeze Ammo in MW3 Zombies
The best way to get Cryo Freeze ammo in MW3 Zombies is to look for Aether Caches within Infested Strongholds. While it is RNG, Cryo Freeze ammo will usually be found in an Aether Cache.
The Elemental Pop Stations are scattered all over the map and require you to spend 2,000 points to get a random item that might be the Cryo Freeze ammo. It is not ideal at all as it is too inconsistent, and you risk spending more points than you need to.
