Variance profile
Wild Bandito sits in PG Soft's high-volatility band, slightly under the very-high label PG Soft assigns to Power of Merlin Megaways and Wisdom of Athena. The bench observed coefficient of variation on per-spin return of 7.82, a value that places the slot above Sweet Bonanza (CV 4.91 on a comparable bench) and below Mahjong Wins 3 (CV 9.14). The dry-stretch profile across the 6,400 paid spins: longest non-paying run 78 base spins, p95 dry run 41 spins, p50 dry run 11 spins.
Methodology note
Sample collected from the DMSTAT cashier-feed reproducible log, restricted to paid base spins only — bonus internal spins excluded from the RTP figure to avoid double-counting. The provider-stated 96.46% RTP corresponds to the high-RTP build PG Soft ships to PAGCOR-licensed lobbies; lower-RTP rebuilds (94.46%, 92.46%) are not on the DMSTAT lobby and are not in the bench. Audit notes uploaded to the DMSTAT cashier-bench archive with sample IDs WB-26041201 through WB-26050123.
What to watch next bench
Three signals worth tracking on the next 90-day window. First, whether the sombrero-wild substitution rate stays at the bench-observed 14.8% of base spins — a drift below 13% would compress free-spin pool length. Second, whether the 25× ceiling on the tumble multiplier appears at the bench-observed 0.6% of cascades — under-frequency would cap top-end clears. Third, whether the free-spin trigger frequency holds at 1 in 168 spins — drift past 1 in 200 would push DMSTAT to revisit the variance label.
