Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Recover should contribute to Wiggle

Just saying.

If you get picked up and dropped, wiggle is in your favor and still is at the same amount. Recovering by logic, goes to say, that you've been recovering from the down. Now logic doesn't have to show this, but it just seems weird.

    Recover is a healing state, wiggle is you trying to break a killers hold. If this suggested logic were true then a fully healed survivor could not be grabbed by a killer. Besides this wiggle doesn't need to be shorter, its only there so you can't be held hostage.

    I don't see why that would be necessary. Killers basically wouldn't be able to drop survivors if they needed to. I think the wiggle meter is fine the way it is, and if they want to tinker with it, survivors need to sacrifice perks to increase their wiggle performance at the very least.

    I think it could work as a perk and with an inefficiency factor (1% recovery=0.x% wiggle) and maybe some downside, but as a basic mechanic it would be terrible. You could just get downed under a pallet and the killer couldn't do anything to prevent your eventual escape.

    Man, it's not complaining. You confused yourself, that's disappointing. I just find it weird that this mechanic isin't in the game, doesn't mean I hate the game or dislike how people play any more.

    You know that you get an extra like 25 or 30% of you wiggle bar when you get dropped right?

    No I did not, since i'm a new player, but it doesn't revert what I'm opposing.

    This means that if you get dropped, crawl away from hooks and you then have a good chance to wiggle free.  
      
    See it this way, you arent really supposed to wiggle free, its just there to limit the killer. That way you dont get hooked in the basement.

    If this were to be fair, it would have to be small. Like 3% for a full heal bar.
