Get rid of Unsafe Unhook penalty

10 seconds of base Endurance. No excuse that I get penalty. If they can't utilize the 10 secs they suck. Some purposely get downed.

    The killer can intentionally wait out the 10s to deny deliverance why are you blaming the surv? BT is still a very strong perk use it maybe

    Is there a penalty? Do you actually lose anything for an unsafe unhook? To my knowledge, there's nothing in the game that causes you to actually lose points… 🤨

    You miss out on the 500 BP for a safe unhook and it gives a huge penalty for your Benelovent emblem. But as depip ping will be removed, an unsafe unhook will probably only prevent you from pipping.

    In my opinion it is not harsh enough, even more so that depipping will be removed with the next update. Which means the minus points you get on the Benelovent emblem just keep you from pipping soon.

    Removing the penalty would cause even more players to farm you off hook. Something we can blame basekit BT for. Because back in the day you hat to actually use your brain to get a safe unhook if you played withot BT. Something more and more people lack these days.

    You should maybe think about how you play if getting Ash Benelovent every game because you farm off the hook. You are a tunneler's favourite btw.

    If the unhooked person can't get to a safe loop within ten seconds, it means you unhooked them in front of the Killer, which is your mistake, not theirs.

    yeah people really forgot how to unhook safely.

    recently i got flak in chat for "hanging around the hook" cause these survs where there to unhook in less then 4 sec. they where always hanging around and acted like each hook phase is only 10 seconds long so they NEED to unhook asap. but the same group told me it cheap to go for the unhooker and when i asked if they rather see me tunneling they sayd i should go find someone else or use an aura perk…. they all had disstortion -.-

    Oh dear. That is an even more stupid excuse than I heard in 5 years.

    And I think that if you told them to bring UW next time they would have told you it's OP because "it has no counterplay" or something....

    recently my bbq feels like a wasted slot cause i see distotion in every game and when im lucky one person ist using it. that guy is then ofcourse a prime target cause hes the only one my perk can show me and i feel a little bad but what should i do?

    This is why i think Distortion should regenerate tokens while being in chase and not while hiding. Because now you gain more stealth while being stealthy, which creates a scenario you just described. I usually play with 2 people who are Distortion users in my swf. Many times at least has not been hooked once while the random and me are both dead on hook, because we are the only one they can see. I use Object, so I am aware of the killer's aura reading and it fits my playstyle way better, but it is still frustrating to die just because the killer could not find someone else.

    (This is the reason I like what Ultimate Weapon did, but I hate how often the killer can trigger it. And with it being an aura perk in the future, there will be even more Distortion-gamers.)

    i honestly think we should get something like a mini bbq basekit but it shows just one survivor and thats the one with the least hooks. that way the killer has a reason to leave the hook and dont come back when there is a unhook (thats obviously a big nono for survs) and at the same time the heat of the game gets directed at the survivor who can tank it. sure that would work against stealth builds and i know we have a good chunk of survivor that love stealth builds but it still a team and you have to carrie some of the load
