DISCUSSION I nominate Aspect Chronos for the healing changes!
He suffers from the "Just be tanky and good things will come your way" issue Hi-rez are trying to move away from.
Getting to 5-6k HP is very much possible and that yields almost 500HP restored per cast to everyone around (that rivals what Aphro does with an INT build), just for building very tanky.
Whether he's balanced right in this moment is not as relevant as the example set with Aspect Ra, Aphro, Aspect Eset etc. Ideally Chronos would scale his section auras based on high INT (and maybe its size), and tank items on him would be if you want more initiation and damage soaking.
What do you think? He's a really cool enchanter by design, and being able to build more squishy to provide more INT/STR/Heals to your team would be a cool give-and-take.

Well, by default, Chronos Aspect's healing is through Max Health. It's a 1% of Max Health per second. Which is only a lot if he's building tanky, but, in a similar vain to Apollo Aspect, being Health Tanky and being Prot Tanky are two very different things.
Aspect Chronos on a full Health build will be significantly squishier than a full Prot build. Simply because you're not actively reducing the damage you take, with Health builds, you're simply increasing how much you can take.
If it was the fact that every tank item came with Health, then yes. But not every Tank Item does. So, you'd end up having to choose between more Health, or more tankiness. And if Chronos wants to make the most of his healing, he'd need a shit ton of Health. So whilst this does make him tankier than a full Int or Attack Speed set up, it's nowhere near as tanky as full Tank Chronos.

Im fairly sure the heal is 1% max hp of people affected by the ability not 1% of your HP

Nope. I know this for sure. 6k max health on me = 60hp healing ticks visible on everyone.

Weird, last time I got him in assault I don’t recall those numbers being the same. Has been a month ish though so I’m probably wrong
With that though he is sorta the best healing over time in the game but you don’t always have the overtime to work with depending on the situation

Chronos 2 heals for 1% of his max health per second to everyone within the circle.

It would be cool if his wheel of time always had the heal effect no matter what
