Sinestro Custos summons an icy Cerberus head in the direction the player is facing. The summoned head delivers ice-attribute damage to enemies in the forward direction. It is one half of a paired hellhound weapon set alongside its evolution material, Dex Custos — the two items are designed to work together.

• Summons an icy hellhound head in the player's current facing direction
• The head deals ice-attribute damage to enemies in the forward path
• Facing direction determines the attack direction — a directional weapon
• Dex Custos is the paired companion item and evolution material for this weapon

Hold Dex Custos, level Sinestro Custos to MAX, then open a treasure chest after 10:00 (evolved form name to be confirmed).

Dex Custos is the complementary item to Sinestro Custos in the hellhound set — securing it as an evolution material also completes the pair's intended synergy.

• Directional summoned head delivers concentrated forward-facing ice damage
• Ice-attribute attacks may inflict freeze or movement delay on hit
• Dex Custos pairing creates a cohesive build identity around the hellhound set
• Accessible unlock condition — level 6 in a run with any character

• Forward-only attack direction — rear and flank enemies require a second weapon
• Summoned-type attack may have limited effectiveness against very close-range enemies
• Evolved form details are unconfirmed — build planning for late game is limited
• Low standalone kill speed; requires a primary offensive weapon to complement it

Characters that benefit from directional forward attack setups and ice-themed builds pair well. Builds that can efficiently collect Dex Custos alongside the weapon to complete the hellhound pair are the most natural fit.

Keep the player facing the densest enemy cluster at all times. Sinestro Custos's directional summoning means facing alignment directly determines how many enemies are hit per activation — constant forward movement into groups is the core pattern.

Secure Dex Custos early to simultaneously complete the evolution requirement and the paired set synergy. Early evolution material acquisition lets the build reach MAX level faster without scrambling for the item late.

Pair with an orbital or radial weapon to cover the rear and flank blind spots. Sinestro Custos handles the forward enemies; the companion weapon handles sides and back.

Q. What is Dex Custos and where does it drop? A. Dex Custos is the companion passive item to Sinestro Custos in the hellhound set. It appears in the standard item selection pool during runs and pairs directly with Sinestro Custos for evolution.

Q. What does the ice attribute do on hit? A. The summoned head deals ice-attribute damage. A freeze or movement slow effect may occur on hit, but the specific probability is not publicly disclosed.

Q. Why is the pickup priority B if it unlocks at level 6? A. Sinestro Custos has modest standalone kill speed and works best as part of the hellhound paired build with Dex Custos. As a primary weapon without its partner, it underperforms in general runs.
