Reassurance should work once per hook state, not hook instance
Reassurance should be reactivatable if the person is still on the hook after going to a new hook state.
The stated reason for the Reassurance change was to prevent hostage taking or trolling. When it comes to this reason, there's little to no difference between hook state vs hook instance. If you keep a teammate on the hook intentionally and then use the perk twice, it's an extra 30 seconds and then the survivor can go back to killing themselves on hook.
At the same time, this difference is a boon to facecamping. That makes this perk, which is very useful for punishing facecampers, have substantially better luck with facecamping by preventing the unhook entirely. A killer who allows the unhook will have to deal with Reassurance for both hook states, but a facecamper will only have to deal with it once. This can be 30 seconds less time to do generators with one person and 90 seconds less for 3 people using the perk.
This doesn't seem to match with the intent behind the perk and seems like an unnecessary nerf.
So I'm just requesting that Reassurance works once per hook state. Not hook instance. This is to make it more effective against facecampers.
