From Pixo's FB an hour ago:
Jesse, Doc and Butch, being among the fastest in their families, will speed-up some more.
Somewhat vibe-killing cool-downs will be cut by nearly half for Butch and Jesse, while Quick-Draw animation shortened to half a second!
All this is placing the Wild Bunch into the fast nimble and versatile brawler niche, and relative vulnerability preserved makes them suitable for skilled risk-takers.
Also, this gem answering a question many have had, about when we can get them if we missed them for the Holiday Event:
You will hear about their availability next week!

Speeding up the cool downs will make them viable but also risks making them OP.

i don't care too much for the 0.5s animations. I want either more hp or more speed, otherwise stalker still outmatches it

High level plasma will melt them, splash will wreck them, and if they are workshop, most people wouldn't try them, as their abilities are really only good for support, as they have no shields |

I want either more hp or more speed, otherwise stalker still outmatches it I would like to know the base HP of Butch if anyone knows (can't look for myself on YouTube). Half second animation is awesome because I've seen the Butch switch in battle and it was very slow, as if the bot casually switched weapons. BTW, I've been eating Stalkers alive ever since I developed a strategy against them. I even bought one and upgraded it to level 7 or so, but its too fragile for my play style. I'm confident I would wreck a stalker with the light switch bot too lol. |

I mean, isn't that the whole point of quad weapons? Sure but what's the point of burst if it doesn't have the speed or hp to get the weaps in range before it gets shot out by other bots? |

ŞĆĦŇIŦŽ€Ł I dunno, seems like they're supposed to be fast when Pixo says "Jesse, Doc and Butch, being among the fastest in their families, will speed-up some more. "
