Why have wiggle when it is useless...
Please change it so we can get some value

The wiggle mechanic does not exist to be a potential get out of jail freecard, it's a mechanic to give the killer urgency to actually hook you before the 15ish seconds are up, forces them to hook in the general area and prevents the killer from just holding onto you forever. There are many perks to help you with the wiggle mechanic, such as boil over, flip flop and power struggle. But you're not supposed to get "value" from a base mechanic as that would punish the killer for… winning the chase?

what level of value would you require?

I would say, maybe if they changed it as a luck value… sometimes you can wiggle out of it .. just like jumping off hook.. that wouldn't be such a bad alternative….

But it is not useless. It prevents the killer from carry you to the basement (basement trapper in mind) or directly to a scourge hook , which otherwise they couldn´t have reached in time.

Imagine if gens could have a chance to just pop back to 50% instead of completing. Thats basically what you're asking for.
Wiggling is to prevent every hook from being a scourge/basement hook, or allowing for opportunities for saves with things like pallets and flashlights by making routing choices higher risk/reward. That type of objective denial is supposed to be a consequence, not a feature.

Wiggling punishes the killer for making poor choices. It does not reward you for making poor choices.

If Wiggling was removed, you'd be asking for it back. Wiggling existence prevent killers from just basement camping every survivor.

Did you ever think things through before making this post?

If wiggling was crazy good the killer will just slug instead

100 points in the Survival category for every skill check is some value.

It's the same reason nothing that Survivors have is good - it's because BHVR doesn't care about the Survivor role. Wiggling is meant to force Killers to hook Survivors - yet they can still take you across the map without the bar filling up. It's one of the various "features" that exist so that BHVR can pretend they care. Frankly, they should've just made a PvE.

What do you mean “across the map”? Can you show just one example where you felt a killer was able to carry a survivor further than they should have been able to? (assuming the survivor was actually trying to wiggle out and killer wasn’t using Iron Grasp, which is a pretty mediocre and infrequently used perk)

The fact is that theu add e d more hooks on maps like a year ago. Ow and still haven't rebalanced the wiggle is hellairois and they say the game is survivour sided the only people that say this is the people relying on easy mode tactics with boosted MMR from doing it 🙄
