Will Basekit Unbreakable lead to more Tunneling?
I think it will.
Sometimes I tunnel a survivor if I can't find the rescuer but I choose to slug them instead to get some pressure. I know they could be on the ground for a long time and another survivor has to come pick them up, unless they have Unbreakable.
With the next change making survivors able to pick themselves up after 45 seconds without intervention from another survivor and Decisive Strike being so bad now I can forget it exists... yep they're going straight back on the hook without delay.
BHVR just keeps removing reasons for me to play nice.
Edit: Upon more thought, I don't just think it will. I know it will.

Maybe
Players who want to tunnel will do it regardless, Players who don’t won’t mind

I slug instead of tunneling if I end up downing the unhooked player shortly off the hook, but as Oni who somewhat relies on slugs, I ll have to resort to tunneling now..... why drop 2 and go after the 3rd when after I get to them, slugs 1 and 2 are up and back on gens :/

I’m concerned it may lead to more sabotaging of hooks. Not quite sure how, but I can see squads taking advantage of this. Survivors would be able to pick themselves up before the hooks came back.

this change will make DS more viable, if the killer waits, the survivor gets up, if you dont wait, you get struck.
Add tenacity and now you can crawl your way to a loop/pallet, pick yourself up and or D-strike.

It's not basekit unbreakable. UB takes 24 seconds.

Yes but DS with only a 3 second stun which is only effective 2 seconds because the survivor suffers a 1 second stagger... I don't even care if I get hit with it.
3 second DS is a joke and not worthy of respect from a killer. A killer need not think twice about picking up a recently unhooked survivor.

Yes. Without a doubt in my mind. If you remove one of the main other strats killers have they’re gonna double down on the ones they have left.

I really might be on the train of this.
Slugging to have the peace of mind that most likely 2 survivors are now off gens while I chase another is dead.
Think ill try that tunnel 2 survivors strat

Hmm, so maybe DS is going to be a meta perk again.

DS back in the build again. Slug me.

I definitely agree i will often feel bad catching the person off the hook and slug them to punish the team and give the survivor a break.
Now if they can pick themself back up and I know it you better believe im gonna rehooke them since thats the only way to for sure gain pressure
