How to unlock the As Cold As Ice achievement in Call of Duty: Vanguard - Definitive Guide

When you first start you need to pick this ability in loadout then start the game, you want to look for the portal that has harvest above it and enter, once in go to phase 2 by putting 5 relics in from zombies that you kill, from there just farm the kills to get your ability up ( see it bottom right of screen) then use the ability LB and RB ( takes a few seconds for it to happen to ) around a few zombies and just keep repeating till achievement pops, tracker doesn't seem to with zombie achievements

This ability seems like you have to use it just away from zombies so they walk into it, you will see them ice up and run up and hit them to they die, ability doesn't last very long at all so need to be quick but easy to farm up this way

I got the shadow one across 2 games so I'm guessing this one would work to, it's pretty easy to charge up these abilities

Pretty easy to do in harvest cause zombies infinitely spawn if you don't do the objective.

Helpful tip! Get the artifact or whatever it's called ( the thing you purchase with hearts) The increase in melee, it'll be so HELPFUL.

All the Artifact achievements can be done across multiple matches. No need to attempt during one match.

Is this achievement even working? I've tried everything. I've gotten kills using the melee of a gun with and without the melee boosting covenant; nothing. I tried kills using the FS Knife; nothing. 10 kills in a round on slowed enemies? Nothing. Even with speed boost and the FS Knife the ability doesn't last anywhere near long enough to get 10 kills in a single use. All the other ability achievements unlocked no problem, but this one just isn't having it. I don't understand.

I got the 100 melee kills badge (nearly all of which were in attempt to get this achievement) and it popped well after that for me. Not sure what the rhyme or reason is for what counts but something does…

I’ve just farmed this using the method above in a solo game and got it as I hit my 10th and 11th one.

Having hit plenty in multiplayer games but I don’t think 10 in one game.

I’m of the view this needs to be in one game which is why some are having issues with it.

This one is definitely a weird one it took me about 20-25 melee kills while they were frozen for this to pop.

Xbox Series S controller, press LB/RB at same time. The Frost Bite Artifact activates! Looking down at the front of controller ; press-in right-thumb-stick (of the xbox controller) consecutively. Do this 10 times, to get 10 kills. Pop go the achievement.

Achievement description is somewhat wrong. They have to be on the frozen on the ground for it to count, not just frozen. Took me 27 kills to get it to pop, count your ground kills.

This trophy seemed to be slightly buggy for me, but I found the best way to do was with the following steps,

1) On the main menu of the game (outside of multiplayer zombies or campaign) push X then circle when it begins to load you will then be able to choose the option to go offline

2) Go back into zombies start a game and select the class that has the frost blast artifact on it.

3) Look around for the harvest mission, if it isnt there for whatever reason either do any mission until it's an option or just back out and go back in

4) Once inside the mission kill zombies to your hearts content until you have charged your artifact, dont bother placing any of the ruines into the harvester.

5) Once its charged lure all of the zombies together until they are in a small group, then move back slightly from them, activating the artifact in close proximity will kill the zombies so you need a gap to make sure they dont die, the after effect of the blast slows them down this is when you need to melee them for it to count towards the trophy. The aftereffect only lasts a second or two though so you need to be quick.

A big part of this will be trial and error and as stated above I needed to do it to a lot more then 10 (probably around 30) but have patience and it will pop eventually!

(This method can also be used to help with the other artifact related trophies as the round doesnt end until you insert the five ruines three times)

This achievement is a bit misleading, it is not any frozen zombie kills, it must be a melee on a zombie that has been knocked back and is laying on the ground.

Easiest way I got this to pop was starting a game on the Shi No Numa map, open up and run a train over at Pack a Punch, keep getting kills to fill up artifact. Once it has filled use the ability using LB + RB in front of the cluster of zombies, one or two of them will fall to the ground covered in ice, knife these ones. Rinse and repeat until you get it, you should be able to easily get this in one game.

After round 13 it becomes a bit more difficult to one hit knife the frozen zombies so can fire off a few bullets into the zombies to reduce health before activating it.

Is this in one round or cumulative?

You should first get to at least level 4 before attempting this trophy, this is because you can then change loadout ingame and do many trophies on the same run.

Once you are level 4, go to weapons => loadouts and create 4 different loadouts with the same weapon. For each of them choose one of the 4 different artifacts. Now ingame, press and you'll be able to change loadout and it will actually change your artifact. For this trophy you'll need the Frost Blast artifact equipped. The artifact will be activated by pressing l1.png + r1.png but you need to charge it first, by killing zombies. When activated, Frost Blast will instakill the zombies close to you but will slow down and cover in ice zombies around you. Get close to these slowed down zombies and melee kill them with r3.png. This is best done on a Harvest challenge at round 4-5 so there will be an infinite amount of zombies.

Got this one yesterday, but i guess it's a bit glitched. But anyway upgrade your frost blast artifact when you got your first heart. Make shure you also have the meele skill because it helps a lot. When you see a group of enemies make sure they spot you and then use your blast a bit away from them in order to lure them into the blasting area. Now when they walk into the blast area meele the ones that got ice around the body. Repeat it till you got the trophy. One more important thing make shure you try this in the first 5/6 waves because the higer the wave the stronger the zombies are and the harder it is for you to kill them with meele. My advice is join a game and as soon you complete wave 5/6 quit the game and then search a new one, so that way you can restart on wave 1 and have weaker zombies that you can easily kill with one meele attack. That's how i got this one, but it took me some time. Just use this method and eventualy you will get the trophy. And remember the more you upgrade your Blast artifact the better. Hope it helps.

I'll tweak the previous tip a little. You don’t have to wait until 6+ waves; you won’t be able to kill a zombie with 1-2 pokes with a rifle. The freezer actually kills nearby zombies when activated. Therefore, I advise the following:
1. Wait until they start to surround you
2. Turn on the freezer
3. The freezer wave kills nearby zombies
4. Stand still(!) and wait for the second rows to enter the freezer area (it really only lasts for a short time, so it’s important to have a lot of zombies around)
5. Hit the frozen ones(!) with a shotgun
6. Profit
In principle, it is possible to get a trophy in one playthrough.

The radius of the freezer is not very large, as is its operating time. Use it when you are surrounded and quickly trying to kill zombies in hand-to-hand combat. At the first difficulty levels it will not be possible to do this, as the Freezer will simply kill the zombies right away, at least level 5-6 should be.
