Nerf Wiggle Progression Length by 5-10%
Playing survivor alone, I personally view Wiggle a pretty much useless and stressful mechanic unless you're:
A) Hardcore SWF Hook Saboing. (which not much do nowadays because of latest patch.)
B) You and your friends run Breakout and Boil over. (which good killers know hook placement by heart.)
C) Trying to get diagnosed carpal tunnel within the next 2 years.
You almost can't do anything with the wiggle it's there for lack of 'realism' .
Though, realistically your adrenaline would be elbowing and kicking and all sorts of nasty stuff to the killer to get out of his/her grasp.
Here's my favorite clip of my friend Tommy that backups my suggestion (killer had Iron Grasp):

NERF WIGGLE PROGRESSION LENGTH BY 5-10%

Wiggle is here so you don't get dragged to the basement 24/7 unless you're close or the killer has a build for it.

WOOOW. That's some real BS... The progression was 100% complete. I agree it should be nerfed at least by 5%. The basement was so far too.😐️

Again, he has a build specifically made for that. Also that looked like something happenned to the wiggling, it stopped twice during the carry and at the end it didn't finish. Probably something with latency.

You may want to consider getting a gaming keyboard and/or mouse that enables macros, so you don't get that carpal tunnel. Best investment I made for my DbD experience.

or download autohotkey

Though that does sound nice, isnt that technically cheating? You could just set the wiggle progression faster than humanly possible but the press of a button.

I think there should be some sort of skill involved with wiggling. Maybe having a skillcheck pop up every couple seconds of wiggling that if you hit it, you get an extra 1/2 % progression on wiggling.

I second this idea but might be a little strange since you're spamming A & D while trying to hit skill checks. XD

Maybe make wiggle progression automatic and add skill checks to hit?

Pressing the buttons faster doesn't make you wiggle faster. The wiggle rate is the same as long as you are pressing the buttons.

I've gotten the bar to 100% only to be hooked anyway so I agree with this.

I don't know why wiggle and struggle make people think they have to press it with all their might. But you only have to do so much for both wiggle its like 3 key inputs per second which is basically nothing.
