Survivor Balancing in latest patch - Lester and Joe nerfed.
Anyone see any other changes? In the latest patch of the experimental branch, Joe no longer has Optimist - it's replaced with Preserver.
Lester no longer has Good Cook. Instead, he has Remorseless.
Can't say these changes are entirely unexpected -- both characters were probably too good/useful, with Optimist neutralizing Shy, and Lester being a top shelter survivor.
