The Chaperone is an Exotic Shotgun that stands apart from traditional shotguns by firing a single precision slug instead of a spread of pellets.
Its long effective range and exceptional precision damage reward accurate aim, making every shot count far more than rapid firing.
In the right hands, it becomes a devastating weapon capable of landing lethal precision hits well beyond the reach of most other shotguns.
How To Get The Chaperone?
The Chaperone was originally earned through the Holliday Family History Exotic quest, but it is now obtained from the Monument to Lost Lights in the Tower.
It can be purchased from the Exotic Archive using the required Exotic materials once the necessary resources have been collected.

Intrinsic Traits
Precision Slug (Barrier)
Instead of firing a spread of pellets, The Chaperone fires a single precision slug that greatly increases its effective range and accuracy.
This allows it to land devastating precision hits from distances where most shotguns struggle, rewarding players who can consistently aim for critical spots.
The Chaperone Catalyst
Triple Tap
The Chaperone Catalyst grants Triple Tap, where rapidly landing precision hits returns one round to the magazine.
This improves sustained damage by rewarding accurate shooting, allowing you to fire more precision slugs before needing to reload.
How To Get The Chaperone Catalyst?
The Chaperone Catalyst can be obtained as a reward from Vanguard Ops, Crucible, or Gambit activities, or through Exotic Order payouts in the Seasonal Hub.
Verdict
The Chaperone proves that a shotgun does not have to rely on pellet spread to dominate, rewarding precision with impressive range and devastating damage.
Once The Roadborn is active, landing follow-up precision kills becomes even easier thanks to the increased handling, range, and damage bonuses.
If you can consistently aim for critical hits, The Chaperone remains one of the most rewarding and satisfying shotguns to master in Destiny 2.
