The Cedo is Lavos' signature shotgun, with a primary fire shooting fully automatic buckshot rounds with high critical chance and deals increased damage with each individual status effect affecting the target, and an Alternate Fire that launches an exploding ricocheting glaive with extreme status chance to amplify the primary fire's output. In Lavos's hands, he applies a
Shotgun Ammo Mutation effect to Cedo.
This weapon can be sold for 7,500.

Notes[]
- The primary fire's bonus damage from individual status effects stacks additively with base damage mods and arcanes such as
Point Blank,
Blaze,
Primary Merciless,
Primary Dexterity,
Arcane Rage,
Arcane Primary Charger.
- Despite not consuming ammo when fired or to deal damage, the alt fire cannot be fired if the gun runs out of ammo.
- Holding alternate fire will return the glaive.
Tips[]
- The Alternate Fire's ability to rapidly proc multiple different status effects greatly synergizes with
Lavos's
Catalyze, its own primary fire,
Galvanized Savvy, and melee weapons modded with
Condition Overload.
- Despite the Primary Fire's low status chance, its high critical chance and critical damage multiplier make
Hunter Munitions worth installing, which in turn allows for a free boost to the Primary Fire's damage even without any glaives launched.
Trivia[]
- The Orokin script engraved on the Cedo's barrel reads "Executioner".
- When it was first introduced, the Cedo's blueprint and components could be purchased from Father during Operation: Orphix Venom for
1,000 Phasic Cells for the components and
1,500 for the main blueprint; a total of
4,500 Phasic Cells are needed. Alternately, they can be acquired from Operation: Orphix Venom missions. Following the end of the event, they were made available through Father.
- The name Cedo may be from the Latin cedo, which can mean "I cede, yield".
- The Cedo appears in the
Lavos's Leverian entry:
