Unsafe hooks

WHY am I getting so many teammates doing this? If there’s no time left and it’s a last ditch effort, fine. But I keep getting teammates who will pull me off the hook when the killer is near, without having borrowed time, and won’t take a hit for me.

Do unsafe hooks make someone lose points?

    I used to assume that everyone thought I had Decisive Strike, but now I just think they're selfish idiots.

    Unsafe hooks don't make people lose BP or emblem points, but they won't gain BP either. They technically get 10 emblem points for the unhook, but that just nullifies the -10 emblem points from someone getting hooked in the first place. But for actual Benevolent emblem points toward pipping, they need to be safe unhooks.

    I genuinely don't understand why people do it either. If you unsafe unhook AND don't take the protection hit, you're losing out on 700 BP right there. Maybe people aren't being altruistic for the BP but it seems weird to me. I get angry AF at people who farm me off hooks because I don't run DS.
