Merc Weapon Speed

[Mavfin]

I'm looking for merc weapon speeds, especially the barbs and town guards...do they pay attention to weapon speeds, and if so, to what scale? Rogues would be nice, too....I figure someone has a link. I've got 14 single-player (players 8) chars I'm working on, and wanting to figure best weapons loadout for my mercs on the 12 that use mercs. (the other two are a poison dagger necro and a blaze babe, that I'm not using mercs on for my own reasons)

Thanks for any help. (Hmm. Weapons loadout. No, I haven't been playing too much Harpoon lately, have I?)
