Default Healers

So, does anybody know what the number for the healer attribute indicates? Seems like "good" healers have 100 there, which seems to indicate it's perhaps a percentage of something? I also know that different afflictions are harder to heal than others.

Seems like the fairy queen is quite the stinky healer though. With a 30 for her healing attribute I've been trying to heal 2 feebleminded (non-undeaded) guys unsuccessfully for 15 turns now (it was caused by mind hunting). Just wondering if I should forget about trying and at least have her summon allies or something useful.

There are only a very limitited numbers of 100 healers, most are 20.

I think it's the chance to heal an affliction.. but then there also is something of a scale how hard certain afflictions are too heal as you said.

Can't heal old age afflictions either btw

Think of it as "The chance that any given unit will get a heal check each month." If a unit makes this heal-skill check, THEN you worry about affliction difficulty. (Feeblemind is high, but not the highest).

I'm not sure that's the actual mechanic; it may be one modified check rather than two separate ones, and I can only guess how it orders multiple afflictions (I think from easiest to hardest to heal?). But that's an easy way to understand the "Heal Value": as the chance that any unit will get time with the healer this month.

Is there a limit to the number of units a healer can heal every turn or does a healer perform it's healing check against every afflicted unit in the province?

Also, how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Healing works so that the number you see is the chance to successfully use a healing ability that turn. If the check is successful, it checks against the difficulty of the affliction and some are harder than others.

Neverhealing wound and feeblemind seem to be the most persistent and feeblemind is the easier of the two.

The check is against everyone afflicted in the province.
