Afflictions

[Immaculate]

Afflictions ignite a sort of macabre interest. Normal units with afflictions get sent to the front lines and thrown back into the fight. Afflicted commanders are sometimes retired. But when its your first and early thug, or worse yet, your awakened pretender, what do you do?

So really, what do you do? Whats the best way to minimize or get rid of early afflictions? Specifcally:

1) whats the earliest and first way to get rid of afflictions?
2) does regeneration have a chance of getting rid of an old affliction?
3) does recuperation have a chance of getting rid of an old affliction?

Thanks,

I.
