Unhooking and Healing

Hey Guys. When is the best time to unhook a survivor? I never want to unhook right away because the killer usually will just down both of us right away. So I just want to know whats the best way to do it? And also should you heal right after you unhook? I really don't like doing that so I tend to wave them away so we can hide but sometimes they dont listen! Am I doing this wrong?

    If you unhook just after TR fades away, killer comes back and punishes you.

    If you unhook after a while, killer comes back to camp the second stage.

    There is a sweet spot between these two... somewhere

    If you want to heal after unhooking, bring We'll make it. Sometimes if the killer is planning on coming back, it's too late and you'll finish the reset

    If you want to make sure it's as safe as you can, bring Kindred and Open Handed - Kindred will reveal the killer if they are within 16m of the hook and open handed extends it to 32m. If the killer is more than 32m away, then that unhook should basically be 100% safe. With this combo you can 100% guarantee safe unhooks

    Pay attention to the HUD, if you see another survivor take damage shortly after a hook, it's safe to assume they're committed to the chase. You can run teammate aura perks or kindred to make sure the killer is still on them
