The Mercy description says "You can attempt to counteract..."

Does this mean that you need to make a roll or you instantly cure de affliction?

It means they should have put "(see page 319)" in the text. There's a section there on Counteracting Conditions that gets implicitly invoked a lot.

EDIT: And/or they should capitalize "counteract" to make it clear it has a technical meaning.
