Tired of being unhooked right IN FRONT of the killer!!

It’s really aggravating how often I get unhooked right in front of killer, just because someone wants the unhooking points.

It destroys my game as the Killer just grabs me and hangs me up again.

Could we have a feature by which the survivor on the hook can kick away other survivors who just want to farm points by unhooking them in a risky situation?

    The devs mentioned something like that about 1-2 years ago. Still waiting on that one.

    You're probably better off equipping either Kindred or Decisive Strike (or both).

    Also, if you somehow get away, lead the killer to the hook farmer and give them up to the killer. I know I'd give them a face-to-face meeting with the Entity.

    If you're always running into this situation, run DS+Unbreakable. Sorry that sucks :( But that is Solo Queue for you. Your teammates are more often than not the true killers.

    It depends on each situation. If your about to go second stage I may farm you or trade in order to give you a second chance. The hope is that everyone is running ds.

    Take each scenario as they come and definitely run ds.

    As a Killer main, I see that quite often. Though I always go for unhooker. So I never have problem with Borrow time.

    However, there are many Survivor use that BT to body block me from unhooker after unhooker took a hit: you asked for tunneling and I will do it until you out of the game.

    We need a option to deny the unhook by kicking the survivor in the face if the killers within like 10 meters of the hook and the survivor isnt running bt you can deny the unhook. In those cases the killer will wait beside the hook to down you instantly so if you deny it it gives the survivor time to bail since the killer wont expect it.

    As a Killer, when I see this happen, I don't know if it's SWF playing aggressive or if it's simply a point-farmer/troll.

    Generally, if I see the unhooked Survivor just standing there, defeated, then I let them go.

    Yeah it's cases of team mates farming you. That make me think, Ds is not a perk meant to protect you from the killer but your team mates.
