Build up to one big "screw you" to killers
So, first they made the increase to distance between hooks larger, this is fine on it's own but coupled with change that makes sabotage so quick you're screwed if someone sabotage hook. People will say "but the hook respawn is lower", but that hook is still gone and in the time it takes to get them to a new hook they'll have probably wiggled free, making this drop to 30 seconds almost meaningless. Now, the answer to this would naturally be to slug if the hook gets sabotaged, but then you now hav ethe perk For the People so the person you slugged is now back to full health. So now whatever you do you're gonna have to do another chase without hooking anybody first.

But now the hooks arent sabo'd for very long..just use new hangmans if you're worried about getting sabo'd

The only increase in distance was on Lerys. And there are still more than enough hooks for the Killer to use (except when you are in an area where all Hooks have been used - which goes for every Map).
And on most of the Maps the Hooks are so close to each other anyway...

The fact they aren't gone long doesn't matter when you're trying to hook someone as that hook is still gone. And hangmans trick womt help at all due to how quick they sabotage is

Hangmans will now tell you which hook might be sabotaged so you dont start off in that direction... And the hook sabo time is actually not as quick as it used to be when someone would 99 the sabo until the killer was near the hook so survivors cant just do it right under the killer's nose anymore

"Only" 30s

Right...not 2 minutes. Jeezus people just can't stop complaining about everything can they? I think everything in this chapter is really balanced and strong for both sides...for once

30s is a huge payoff for 2.5s of time invested.
It's approximately 5-10% of a match against good survivors.

But then you have to think about how long itll take to get to another hook, which by then the person will have wiggles free. That drop to 30 seconds is meaningless when you're actually trying to hook someone

SImple. Bait out the person who has the sabo then go too another hook, or bring aggitation/hangmans too counter sabo entirely.
