Wiggling button PS4

How do you guys feel about the macro for struggling in the killer's grasp? I already have my second controller's analog stick ruined by the fast left-right movements you have to perfom during wiggling. Why can't we switch it to a button like X or O?? The analog stick is a delicate thing and I don't want to have to buy a new controller every 6 months because it won't work properly anymore at some point... Any thoughts on this? Anyone having similar issues?

    Do a circular motion clockwise, problem solved.

    YOU DO KNOW DOING IT FASTER DOES NOT MAKE YOU WIGGLE FASTER RIGHT!?

    I do know that, thank you very much smartbuns. Im fairly easy on the controller, but still I've noticed some sort of unresponsiveness while moving for like a week now - and my controller is only a few months old. Same thing happened to the controller I had before after a couple of months playing DbD.
    But alright, your answer suggests you don't have these problems with your controller and that's all I wanted to know.

    This. Circular motions are just as effective while also not killing your hand or controller.

    I'll try that, thank you. Not really a full solution because you still have to stress the analog stick, but maybe better than side movements. I'm just wondering: on PC you are free to designate your macros freely, why not on PS4 as well?? I want the wiggling on X or square.

    Replacing it with multiple skillchecks with small radius (like ds or even overcharge tier 3) would be a better option in my opinion and reward skilled players instead of just giving an escape for mashing.

    Wiggle is kinda like trying to unhook yourself, most of the time you wont escape anyway but yeah, a simple button would be easier for me too.

    I would choose to not wiggle and let him hook me if I could, but if you just dangle there he takes ur ass in the basement lol. I am on PS4 and the wiggle functionality is my least favorite part of the game.

    Yeah I know but sometimes I won't wiggle at all. On ps4 as well. Some killers let me live if I don't struggle btw lol.

    So true, I've had this happen lol. Or they'll think you have decisive and dribble you until you break free. :eh:
