You didn't seem to account for enemies having armor, as that would cut down damage from both abilities, and not by the same rate due to it being a percentage of each ability damage. On top of that, it's DoT, not a oneshot damage number, and you really should NOT be comparing the two, seeing as they are not the same thing, and Effigy is far better in many aspects, and worse in so little, the most notable downside being energy drain, but  damage, credit boosts, and stat changes from Effigy make Chroma a more flexible and mobile, while allowing for faster healing by Elemental Ward, Life Strike, and the energy that you recieve to cast these if being healed by a teammate.
