What Reduces the Will of Soldiers?
In XCOM: Enemy Within:
- What effects/events can reduce a soldier's Will score? Gravely Wounded? Sustaining a critical hit?
- How much is the Will reduced by? X per day or flat rate per event?
- Is there any way to prevent this (either before or after the event)? Do any MEC or Cybernetic enhancements have any effect on this process?
I was told that a Gravely Wounded soldier would lose Will at a rate of 2/day while healing.
In a recent game, post-mission a soldier was listed as: Gravely Wounded (2 days). After his recovery, his Will was unchanged. During the mission he was reduced to 1 hit point through 2 separate attacks (neither was a critical). Also that soldier had Adaptive Bone Marrow. I'm not sure if that made a difference.
Additionally, I was told that enlisting a soldier in the MEC program would negate injury-related Will loss (as it changes the description from Gravely Wounded (X days) to Wounded (3 days)). Is this true?
