EA Ermor healing and healing mechanics

turn 2= 4 afflictions healed (1 unit healed)
turn 3= 5 afflictions healed (no units)
turn 4= 1 affliction healed. (no units)

Now I know ermors healers are inferior to arco, and its true that some of the units were old or diseased, but surely the math here is a little nonlinear?

Can someone explain why the cure rate is so low relative to the expected value?

Also is there a spoiler on age and scales/paths? I can't find one via forum search and the manual is not helpful.


Thanks for your time,

I'll expand on edi's answer: some afflictions are harder to cure than others. With a low grade healer, it often isn't even useful to heal the units. If they're not sc's or high value units just do a march of the lepers.. and send them to die
