    I noticed that when I first used it, but I realized it was because I wasn't letting my CoF reset after sprinting or jumping. The Baron requires you to slow down for a bit before you fire, be particularly deliberate with your aim and your shots.

    Pretty much what Gundem said:


    At first it didn't work for me either. As I used it more, my crosshair placement improvement and I started pacing shots, effectiness improved considerably.

    Yea, that constant 2.5 Pellet spread punishes anything but precise aim, which is amplified by it's reduced damage.

    As for my comments earlier about ADS headshots, I have noticed a few things. While the Chaos was able to pull off ADS headshots with a good 25% consistency(Pretty significant) at close range, the Baron does have quite a bit more trouble pulling it off.

    But, I did also notice that when going for ADS headshots, the Baron is still more likely to two hit kill. This is also pretty significant, especially considering the Baron's lower RoF.
