How to unlock the Six Pack achievement in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War - Definitive Guide
To unlock this achievement you will first need to reach player level 51 which unlocks all perk skills
Your level carries across all game modes e.g. Multiplayer, Zombies & DOA so all player experience earned is cumulative across all modes.
Once at level 51 you will need a total of 36 Aetherium Crystals to upgrade all 6 perks to Tier III.
You get a Aetherium Crystal at the start of round 11, then every 5 rounds thereafter. the amount of crystals earned will subsequently start to increase the further into the later rounds you go.
Round 11 Reset Farming = 1 Crystal
It takes between 10-15 minutes to complete the first 10 rounds in the starting area. You should only be spending your points on the ammo cache until you hit round 11 don't bother opening any doors at which point you can call in the evac chopper which will immediately spawn zombies next to you. Let them down you then revive yourself and let them down you again to end the game and receive the match bonus exp.
Aetherium Crystals can be used to upgrade other useful skills such as Weapon class, Field Upgrades and Ammo Mods. These are permanent upgrades which should increase your chances of surviving later rounds but none are required for the achievement so it's probably best only spending them on perk upgrades until the achievement is out of the way.
Round 16 Evac escape = 3 Crystals
It's actually more time efficient to start with the combat knife and melee zombies in the first area until round 6 then buy through to Jugger-nog and purchase it and the Gallo SA12 off the wall of the plane. Then carry on Melee killing the zombies until you have at least 6500 points to turn on the power. I would recommend buying through the left path to speed cola when underground. Once the power is on build the Pack a Punch machine and buy armour then return to the starting area and keep finishing the rounds. You may as well buy stamin-up, speed cola, pack a punch your SA12 and upgrade your armour to tier 3 when you have enough points. You will have to deal with at least one heavy before you hit round 16 but the SA12 will take it down with ease. Once you hit wave 16 call in the evac chopper and escape this should net you 3 crystals in 20-25 minutes if you're killing things efficiently.
For anyone farming these through higher level rounds
KriSpy CharMZ has commented you will receive 3-4 in rounds 41 and 46 and 5 in rounds 51+ and an extra crystal is obtained by escaping on the evac chopper.

You might want to fix your guide. You get Aetherium crystals every 5 rounds after round 11. When I was into round 41 and 46 I was getting around 3-4 Aetherium crystals. I was also getting like 5 Aetherium crystals when I was at like round 51 and 56. Also its worth trying to exfil as you get one more Aetherium crystals if you don't want to get into the higher rounds.

Outbreak is a much better way to get crystals, and is a lot more fun IMO.

heya guys
i made a video on how to get socket to me & six pack at the same time :)
to start with you must get to level 51 so just play some zombies or multiplayer and come back to this achievement when your level 51
now what you need to do is grind for crystals
the crystals are the purple crystals awarded at the end of a game
to get the crystals i used 3 methods
method 1
get to round 11 , call an extraction then just fail the extraction ... this usually gives you just the 1 crystal but sometimes thats all you need
method 2
get to round 11, call the extraction and make sure you complete the extraction (completing the extraction gives you more crystals but you do need to turn the power on first)
method 3
same as method 2 but get to round 16 instead
you can extract every 5 rounds but obviously it takes longer and just gets harder
the weapons i use are the knife and the shotgun that is near the downed plane
once you have enough crystals you can upgrade your perk skills in the loadout section under the skills menu (each perk has 3 upgrades)

If you play cross-platform like me (pc) and you have already upgraded everything, all you have to do is view the skills and this achievement will pop up along with Socket-to-me achievement

You need to collect 6 ether crystals for 6 perks. Total: 36 crystals. They are given for completing 10 waves, then for every 5 waves and can drop randomly for completing challenges. We pump each perk to level 3 in the class settings.
UPD: Now (2024) there are more than 6 perks and their level has been increased to 5. You don't need to level up to level 5. On another version, the trophy will be given automatically when you go to class settings - skills, if you got that trophy on the first version (PS4 or PS5 - it makes no difference).

If you plan to get the trophy on both platforms, then it is better not to rush before the last leveling of the last perk, otherwise you simply will not get the trophy on the other console and you will have only two choices: reset the progress and level up again, or wait until new perks are added (it is unknown when this will happen). But there is a solution, for this you need a wired connection (Ethernet cable).
When the last perk and the last upgrade are left, we start pulling out the wire and quickly press X (upgrade the perk). The trophy falls and the game is knocked out of the network, so if you go back in, it simply won't have time to save the progress, and you'll be left with an unupgraded last skill. Then just go to another platform, upgrade the skill and get the trophy there too)

At the moment, the best way to farm crystals for perks is the invasion mode. Start it solo and run to the task, ignoring all the side icons, after the task is completed, run further to the lighthouse and choose evacuation.
This way you can take out 2 crystals in 6-7 minutes. Oh yeah, and don't forget to spend money at the lighthouse, for example on graveyard lemonade, so that if anything happens there's another chance.
P.s. if suddenly you need silver and gold crystals (not needed for trophof, but makes life much easier), then just go as far as you can in the invasion
