Killer refuses to hook
I'm in a match as a survivor and (I admit) the killer had great skill. Playing the nurse, she let all four of us bleed (down state) and refused to hook us. It takes a while and I have no idea what to do. I don't want to leave because I dont want to get banned for ragequitting. But it takes minutes and minutes to bleed out :/
Two others eventually lost connection.
I really have no idea what to do in such situation.

It takes 4 minutes to bleed-out completely and a lot of skill on the Killer's part to achieve a 4-man slug. 4 minutes isn't that long, hooks regenerate in 3.

What you can do in this situation is accept your defeat and wait it out. Period. Slugging is not a bannable offence and it's also not taking the game hostage (as you die within 4 minutes).

If you don't like being slugged, then you have 2 options: 1) don't get caught; 2) use Unbreakable or No Mither.

Killers are not obligated to hook any Survivor in the slightest.

What you do is alt tab and surf the internet.

Slugging is more fun than hooking.

1- Bleed to death

2- Press "leave match" at the result screen

3- Press "Find game" at the character screen.

welcome to the slug meta, everyone is using decisive strike and bodyblocking u in front of the hook

Ive had survivors sit in my instance after gates are powered for 15+ mins while they sneak around and hold MY lobby hostage...

Bleeding out is nothing it takes 4 mins.

Sometimes it is the only wise thing to do. Last time I got a 4-man SWF (3 lightsabers and BNP), I had to slug them, since all they cared about was trying to bully my nurse into the ground. Somehow I managed to get them all on the ground at once, and smack one that was running unbreakable. Since I was certain they all have DS, I had to wait it out, since there was no hooks nearby.

Also it was very satisfying to watch them bleed out at my feet.

Slugging is the correct answer to DS, BT, SC. I'm surprised more Killers aren't making it a regular thing.

People usually do this to derank while still showing "Yee am so heckin good"

Back in the day if it were a full man sabo then you would sometimes have to do this as hooks would never respawn so slugging was very good back then, and still is now with perks like Knock Out.

How to deal with it? Unbreakable or suck it up and die slow.

I do this to derank. You can thank the devs for both doing nothing to balance high rank play/SWF play, and for banning for DCs. Also for the killer cube.

I do not entirely commit to this strat, I mean, I do not commit to it at all, seeing how I play for points and try to go Entity Displeased or Brutal Killers while keeping everyone alive, so I can just suggest you to accept your doom and move on.

There are a few Killer Characters that almost require you to Slug if you want to win. Nurse, is one, as you saw in your experience, Freddy is another. Watch a few "hahha we are ochido Jr against Freddy" videos, you will see how Slugging is 'almost' a necessity with the 7-second delay before interacting with them. Add that to a 4-man SWF, and, you are going no where with Freddy.

You had 2 people DC... right there is Toxic in itself and no one is talking about THAT! We need to Slug to win, and 2 people DC to prevent that (one is legal the other is not)

I have accidentally let people bleed out because they crawled away and I couldn't find them. I wasn't running Deerstalker and had no idea where they went. So, you Slug 4 people, 2 DC, and the other 2 crawl away so you can't find them, because, you dont know who went down where, and now, you are running around trying to find them.

I successfully 4-man slugged in a game as Nurse when people tried to body block the final hook after triggering it. Had one person picked up, first person to body block got hit and went down, and then I got the next in 2 blinks. Turned around and ripped the fourth off of the hook trying to save.

I had to let two of them bleed out due exit gates up and no hooks nearby, and they refused to crawl away in fear of getting too close to a hook. It was pretty satisfying. I fail to 4 man slug in most games, though. You really have to know where at least a second survivor is the moment you get your first down.
