I think it’s self explanatory, isn’t it?

If you sabotage a hook, it creates a loud noise notification for the killer. The same thing that happens when you fail a skill check on a generator or fast vault a window outside of a chase.
Those gloves make it so you can sabotage a hook, and the killer will not be alerted.

Gloves are a must-have for those pesky "Sabo X number of hooks" dailies.

It's so that the killer isn't notified when you sabo a hook

are you guys fr i dont want to know what this does i want to know what purpose it has because it makes no sense hooks respawn after 30secs so the only way you can actually sabotage the killer is : sabotage the hook right before him, and then he sees you anyways so this addon doesnt make sense

Are you asking why you would ever sabotage a hook?
Because it works. Have you never been in a match where the Killer heads towards a hook, some Jake slides in and sabotages it, and now the Killer has used 7 of his 10 allowed Survivor grunts to reach the hook and realizes he is screwed and the Survivor escapes?

Alright there is a clip of otz getting owned by this addon but basically if the area is a realative hook dead zone and the killer is about to pick up a survivor saboing the nearest hook before they can see auras will probably make them go for a hook to far away and lose the survivor from their grasp
for more context there was a hook about 10 meters away but with no notification / sound he didn't and couldn't have known about the preemptive sabotage

That clip is amazing XD.
Yeah OP, most survivors use the gloves to complete dailies without notifying the killer. A more subtle approach is shown in Otz video where they kept sabotaging hooks in an area of the map completely barren of hooks.

i have to say thats pretty but the addon is still useless.
0 -
useless because you can't use it right, which applies to many things in this game
huntress is useless if you can't land a hatchet
nurse is useless if you can't land a blink
spirit is useless if you can't hit anyone after power
its all a matter of how much effort you put into them being useful before you actually get value from them
