Seriously killers, why do you do this?
Just played a match with a wraith. I never saw him the entire match because he committed to chasing only two survivors who looped him the entire match. We popped exit gate and at that moment someone went down and he finally got his first hook. Edited to add, I was not the first hook that went down. I was the second one to go down attempting that hook rescue.
Long story short, my teammates screwed me so I got left behind to die on first hook. The entire time I’m dying the wraith stands there and just hits me over and over in hook.
If you’re a killer who does this? Why? You know you’ve got that kill and there’s nothing I can do. Why sit there and be a toxic douchebag by hitting me over and over until I die? I’ve even had killers who 4K do this. If I’m the last on hook dying they stand there through the entire sacrifice process and just swing and hit over and over.
what’s your deal? Did the game make you that angry? Why be a sore winner?

This is purely to cause a reaction, which it obviously did.
Best you can do is, ignore it and move on.
Because humans can be like that on occasion
Obviously I did, I have no other choice. I’m just curious whether or not anyone will actually answer this question honestly, but I’m also curious of their reasoning. I’m into psychology so I’m interested in the “whys” of what people do. 🤣
The same reason survivors t-bag at the exit gate and wait for the killer to show, to be toxic. It's not an inherently killer or survivor thing, its just a bad fact about gamers in general.
He couldn't down the other two just you.
So you were the chosen one to take his frustration out on.
Best thing to do is walk away
Why do survivors teabag at the exit gate?
Why to players write gg ez after a match?
Its just to trigger a negative reaction. Best thing is to ignore it and wish a good day. Responding with kindness to toxic behavior usually confused the people and caughts them off guard.
A couple weeks ago I had a survivor match against a Wraith. He did horrible, he was obviously new. After getting stomped, he got one kill because the survivor did something dumb instead of just leaving. The Wraith hooked her and hit her over and over again.
It turned out to be a streamer, and I went over and watched the recording of the match. He was never angry, he was talking with his chat throughout the match about different things, and when he had the survivor on the hook at the end of the match and was hitting her over and over again he was actually just bored waiting for the Entity to hurry up and finish sacrificing her so he could see how much BP he'd earned. It wasn't malicious or angry or meant as BM, he was talking amiably with his chat and was a bit impatient about seeing the end screen.
That was a surprise. I expected some frustration or taunting or something, but nope. Nothin'. We truly never have any idea what's going through another player's head.
This game is full of survivors and killers bming so don't let it get to you. Just a normal dbd day
Thanks for your response but without knowing the details of what happened in my match you’re hardly able to tell me my teammates didn’t screw me, when they in fact did. Anyway thanks for the rest of your reply
I’m not asking about survivors. I’m specifically asking about killers and their mindset/reasoning for this specific action. I’m not interested in any veiled “survivors do stuff too!” replies. We have enough of those posts here.
I mean no one can read the Wraith player's mind and tell you why he did that, but it's seems the most likely reason he did that was he was upset that the game went really badly for him so took out part of that frustration by hitting you on hook.
Why does it matter? By letting it get to you -this- much that you went to the forums and made a thread just screams that the Wraith got what he wanted.
the response to "why the bad manners" is often "because i was bored"
As I said in a previous reply, I’m into psychology so I’m interested in the “why” of peoples behavior. This post was meant hopefully for actual killer players to come in and say “oh well when I do that it’s because..” if they choose to do so. Because again, I’m interested in what they’re thinking when they do this stuff.
Obviously I can’t keep other people from coming in and dropping their opinions but this post isn’t the after-game therapy that you seem to think it is. I’m fine. I’ve already played a few matches since I made this post. 🤣 Again? I’m just curious about killer players who do this.
I mean I -am- an 'actual killer player' and I gave the pretty obvious reason why he probably did this.
It doesn't take a genius to work out that a Wraith who didn't get a hook until the exit gates were open and is hitting someone on the hook is probably doing it because he's upset. Like almost anyone can work that out I don't understand what secret you're expecting killer players to have.
People read too much into teabagging and hitting on the hook. Sometimes it's just because "it's a button to press and it does a thing".
I mean a 2 out that shouldn't have been a 2 out would make him a sore winner and think something. It should have been a 3 out at least assuming you or your teammates didn't unhook the first guy.
think of it like this. the game is ending. there's nothing left to do. at best the killer could go break a pallet or a wall. killer can't kick anymore gens because game is over. they might be able to close hatch if they haven't already.
just as survivors heal each other for free points and t-bag at the gate - killers farm bloodpoints and beat their meat at the end of a match. meat in this instance being the hunk of flesh hanging on a meat hook.
why? because there's nothing else to do. the real question here is... "why does it upset you?" the match is over. you made a play and lost out on an escape. move on. blame yourself for going for a save not the killer.
I mean, contact him and ask him?
I’ve hit people on hook before (once) and I did it because I wanted to assert dominance like yeah this is the only game where one person/player can literally prevent another player from participating in the game & I’m going to exploit that. I was being an @$$ because BHVR allows it. 🤷♀️ I don’t behave that way without provocation but that was the mentality I had when I did it. It was purely schadenfreude and I’m pretty sure it’s at least 70% of the reason why any killer does it. You’re getting a lot of dishonest or misdirecting answers here because the killer mains of this forum want to maintain this weird, deceptive air that they’re persecuted & good people & overly stressed and all that stuff. But I’m not afraid of being honest.
Thank you for your honesty. I appreciate it.
Human etiquette
Most killers are super sensitive. They don't have anyone else to blame for their failures on other than game balance. Regardless they like to treat a 1k as a personal victory since they can't acknowledge they're bad at the game.
Survivors do stuff too!
Killers often do it as some sort of revenge. Maybe you just spent the last 10mins wasting their time with constant looping, then when they finally get you, suddenly they get a power rush. Is hitting you repeatedly on the hook unsportsmanlike? Yeah possibly, but unfortunately camping be legit.
new player, most likely frustrated
I don’t have an issue with endgame camping. I’m a survivor main but honestly if I’m the killer and I just spent the entire game getting juked and I get one person on hook, you can bet I’m gonna camp and make sure I get at least that one kill. I get that one honestly.
