More needs to be done about hook campers. On both sides killer and survivors. A massive debuff should be in place or something

    A killer camping the hook is applying no pressure to the gens. Just do gens and punish the killer yourself.

    Insta heal, borrowed time, septic agent, hook sabotage, mettle of man, or DS. Im sure ive missed a couple options.

    If a killer camps you on first hook all gens are easily done.

    You get your pip while the killer probably de pips and logs off the game lol

    That doesn't work well, especially in solo, if you don't know if someone is already going for the save, so everyone rushes for the save. You need some time to make sure that the killer is not going away, even if you return to the gen you've been repairing, the hooked survivor will be dead before you can finish the whole gen, so camping is still very effective for the killer.

    Wasting a perk slot for Kindred, just to be a little closer to SWF performance isn't always a good idea, so some game mechanic is needed.
