Saboteur correction

From dbd wiki (or in game description)

  • "Sabotaging a Hook without a Toolbox takes 2.5 seconds."

It ain't so. It currently takes 3 full seconds.

It would be nice if saboteur (same applies for alexis toolbox) took 2.7s or a little bit less (but I would not go below 2.5s).

The reasoning being, that before 6.1 you could force-exchange someone on deadhook for yourself by blocking hook and after getting hit sabotaging said hook (but dying for it in a process).

This still wasn't easy to pull off (deadhook-surv need to be downed away from any hook, you needed to guess correct hook to run to and sometimes killer is still able to hook that survivor anyway) and overall gives a lot of pressure to killer (sabo-survivor is still down, killer can possibly quickly re-down deadhook survivor and you are worse-off then before this play), but this made the game more fun AND it somewhat helped to counter tunneling.

Considering how dense hooks have lately become (maybe not taking into account midwitch), I don't think this would even be that huge of a buff.
