There are two Roman numeral puzzles in The Tomb map.

The one that appears on the bull painting is the one that gives you the Staff key item.

You can find the Roman numeral on the bull at the above-marked location.

When you arrive at the painting’s location, you won’t find the Roman numerals or symbols, as you must trigger the puzzle first.

How to trigger the Roman numeral bull puzzle

To make the symbols appear on the bull painting in The Tomb map in Black Ops 6, you must shoot down the blue flame lanterns in the room.

The first one appears near the doorway, and the second one is on the side of the pillar.

I have marked their locations in the above screenshot.

Once you shoot them, head to the next room and shoot the lantern on the pillar.

Now, head back to the room and you will find the Roman numerals highlighted on the bull painting.

To solve the Roman numeral puzzle, all you have to do is shoot them in order.

  • I – 1
  • II – 2
  • III – 3
  • IV – 4
  • V – 5
  • VI – 6
  • VII – 7
  • VIII – 8

For example, you must first shoot the Roman numeral I and then II, then III and so on.

Once you shoot all the Roman numerals in the correct order, the blue lines will connect them.

Defeat them.

Go near the orb, and it will spawn another wave. Defeat them.

Keep repeating until you get past all the waves to obtain the Staff key item.
