Its not really necessary to know programming languages for hacking, but it would be a huge plus so if you come across a situation where you need to churn out a fast solution you have the ability to do it yourself.

Exactly, it’ll make it easier to hack but you can use tools if you know what to do.
If you don’t know a language and don’t know how to hack, I recommend learning to code. It’s a life skill that can serve you well.

Knowing many languages is beneficial but not that important. Familiarity with various protocols is more useful. Learn C and Python and protocols and you will be good.
