More ideas on preventing the Tunneling

my ideas build around an already implemented feature, the "unique hook" to be specific, aiming to make tunneling not so rewarding to even frustrated to do by killers

  1. make hook related perks only activate when it is an unique hook (eg. Pain res, BBQ, Pop Goes the Weasel)
    1. this method will significantly limit perks options for killer who favor in tunneling
  2. unique hooks will reset cooldown of killer's abilities while tunneling hooks make killer's abilities go on cooldown
    1. this might backfire and encourage killer who did a tunneling to camping as well, since their abilities still on cooldown
  3. chasing a recently unhooked survivor will not grant a Bloodlust for a killer, and if that survivor is on death hook they will be grant with haste while in chase (it can go even further to automatically heal back to healthy state or grant endurance status).
  4. when killers carring a recently unhooked survivors, hook auras are hidden. survivors wiggling gauage is also progressing faster.
    1. 3 & 4 will make tunneling super not rewarding, imagine after a long and difficult chase, a survivor wiggle free so easily, wasting all the previous effort.

Note: of course these strategies should only applied in early stage of the match eg. 4-5 gens remain to keep the balance and enjoyment of both sides
