Healing and Afflictions
 

thoughts on healing options and best anti affliction choices

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Chalice, gift of health, faery queen, national commanders/summons with healing.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

As for anti-affliction, the only option is Regeneration which reduces your affliction chance by 1/10. Other than that, have lots of HP or just dont get hit.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

... or only use units with recuperation.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Yeah, all Pangaea units have recuperation. Some others have it as well.

"As for anti-affliction, the only option is Regeneration which reduces your affliction chance by 1/10"

What does it mean exactly? Only by 10%? Each point of regen? Does higher regen reduces stronger(as in manual)? What's corelation?

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Honestly I don't think anyone knows a definitive answer re: regeneration vs afflictions.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

It's definitely very effective. I have a compstomp game with a friend going where I have both the Summoning Circle (60% blood spell reduction) and the leper fens (Spreads deadly disease, 1D1W) in the same province. This would be a difficult/expensive thing to work around except that I'm playing Midgard so all of my Galdermen regenerate. After ~20 turns of being diseased, most only have one or two extra afflictions.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Check edi's database
theres 19 commanders with healing
Acrocephale, Tienchi, EA Ermor, Gath (or hinnom or the other one), and LA Pythium I think are the ones with recruitable healers.
I think only the priestess of acro has skill of 100 of those recruitables. The rest have 50 at most.
The mother of the serpents pretender has 100 skill also. She can heal herself.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Ashdod and Gath can both cast Call Arel, a 50 healer. It's rather expensive and difficult to get to. They have no recruitable healers that I am aware of.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

great stuff, thanks, afflictions can be a real pain sometimes, just looking for way to help combat these darn things.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Gath has the recruitable Abba, with healer (30).

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Plus, they autocast Dancing Queen at the beginning of battle.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

ya know, when you think about it the Hinnom- Ashdod- Gath line really doesn't make sense... Hinnom is part of the phrase "Gey Ben Hinnom" which is in the Hebrew Bible means hell. Ashdod is a city in Israel, currently the 6th or 7th largest in size. Gath is the ancient capital city of the Biblical Philistines(not modern Palestinians) which is in modern day Gaza strip.

what does hell, a city in Israel and a city in modern day Gaza strip have to do with anything and why are they related? :o

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Ouch!

PS Oddly they were picked by some mag as the number one group people would like to see reunited.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

Speaking of healing afflictions, can any healing means eventually heal lost eyes and chest wounds caused by equipped items? Logically they shouldn't, of course, but since items cause generic afflictions, I figure a rare possibility to heal them could have been overlooked by Illwinter :)

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

No, unless the items are removed. I suspect what happens is that they reapply the affliction every turn.

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

I think I saw somewhere that chest wounds from inserting the "heart" items can be healed, not sure about eye loss from eye of aiming/void/ruby/flame

Re: Healing and Afflictions
 

You can't heal either while the item is in. Once it's out they're all fair game. 99% sure about heart items.
