The chaperone used to be quite good. It actually rewarded a skilled hand. Now it just plain sucks. Matador is mapping me at the same range, without the requirement to get a headshot.
Either buff chaperone or nerf matador because one is clearly more powerful than the other by a wide margin.
-
I use the chaperone as an anti shotgun device dont rush or slide shotgun i pop it out when someone Else is rushing me and i take the advantage of the chaperones range....
-
I'm all for a Chaperone buff. Excessive weapon nerfing has only made the game less fun over time.
-
im okay with nerfing matador so isnt the best shotgun anymore.
-
Matador has made snipers useless.
-
Matador is the weapon that killed the crucible for me, I have a half decent roll but it doesn't have range finder so I don't play crucible much anymore and I'm starting to loose interest in this game
-
The nerf to chaperone made it useless. It never needed a nerf, buff chaperone to how it was. Then it will be fine
-
Yea, sure, a Chaperone buff. But only a little one. This thing is still my OG
-
The Chaperone needs a buff. Great gun. Really fun to use. But not quite [i]exotic enough,[/i] you know?
-
The chaperone is a gimmick weapon, the only good thing about it is the reload animation.
-
so they have the same range and one requires a head shot but has a 4-1 firing speed advantage but requires a head shot. seems pretty balanced to me. one person has a 1 shot chance to kill you where as you have 4 chances to kill them before they can shoot again. how much more of an advantage do you want as thats not balance then its imbalance.
-
Why they decided to bring this broken ass snip..shotgun back into the game is beyond me. It rewarded a trash playstyle then, and it does the same now.
-
Matador trumps just about every shotgun. The Chaperone can still hold it's own though. Here's a clip to make you feel better :) http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/BookGoblin/video/25085329

Edited by biglou_x1000: 12/29/2016 8:34:12 AMI think what he was saying was if two people met one with chaperone one with matador, matador could kill you outside chaperones range. For chappy to kill outside a ranged Matty, it REQUIRES a headshot. Why use something that's harder to use to get the same result. Therefore, according to tc, chaperone is useless vs a range rolled matador. And one is considerably harder to acquire. I think that was the point...? For the ppl in the headshot range/ rate of fire argument.
-
Exotics are meant to be clumps of shit now. This is what bungie wants. Accept it. -------------- Honestly though I disagree with a matador nerf, however, the vast majority of exotics need a buff.
-
Matador has made a large number of specials useless.
-
You need the right roll on your matador to have that nice range. Even then, they're inconsistent quite often.
-
The Matador made every weapon basically useless.
-
Right so your title is wrong. Should be Matador has made every shotgun useless
-
So then it is like every other exotic in the game???
-
That's because it's been nerfed (surprised?), and that's after they self-banned ever changing the weapon. OG Chaperone was [i]devastating[/i].
-
Yeah, so? It's just another exotic outclassed by a legendary. Get in line.
-
Nothing about the matador archetype has changed since the chaperone came out.
-
Lol it wasn't the matador. The chaperone was never useful in the first place
-
Actually the chaperone has the edge over Matador with consistency by a wide margin and OHK range by a meter or two.
-
No, bungie made it useless. Taking up an exotic slot and requiring a headshot should be enough... Instead they made it crap.
-
The chaperone has more range with a headshot but I agree buff it
