Actually that's not true. With Vex Armor, Chroma can cause his armor to *far* surpass Valkyr's. She has a maximum of about 2300 or so, while he can hit 3000 with only moderate boosts to power strenght. And surprisingly, Heat actually provides the most effective health over-all, topping at around 18000 effective health, while using the Cold element calculates to *around* 14000.

Specifically the conclusions section has the most relevent data. Valkyr's maximum effective health is going to be around 10000 I believe, if using Steel Fiber+Warcry. And actually that's if Warcry is total armor not Base. If it is Base, then it would be about 1800 max, instead of 2300, which would be even less effective health. I won't argue that Hysteria is obviously superior in the regards that it turns you invincible, however it severely limits your offensive and utility options. Chroma has the ability to super-charge his allies health as well, not to mention he can function as a substitute healer if needed; as players simply need to leave his effective range and re-enter it to gain the effects again, effectively healing them over and over as much as needed.
