No that's not how it works. Old chroma had an error in the math with resulted in elementals double and triple dipping and giving so much more damage than what it should've given. 

He still got that error in his Math, DE just made his old Multiplicative Damage buff Additive.

Garuda needed some buffs when she was first released. And she got them and then some. Shes a solid frame. Problem is, her abilities do not fit well into current Warframe.

Her 1 has mobility in it's first half but it's not as great as just bullet jumping in most cases. Shield defends you from the front(follows camera) and stores damage. Certainly not as boring as DR or 1500 armor toggle. But more restrictive than those when it comes to actual defense. Finishing off enemies that are almost dead only becomes useful on high level missions where enemies don't melt from you just looking at them(or at least take SOME time to do so). Not a huge fan of charging the blood ball - limits movement, takes time. It has synergy with 4 and basically is a source of infinitely scaling AoE insta-kills.

2 locks you in place if you want healing, I suppose it's good for tanking and uhhhh healing teammates(but everyone can heal themselves so whatever). Doesn't mix well with the passive, from my experience.  

3 gives energy and helps with managing the passive. Free Rage or efficiency mod slot. Good stuff.

4 is a great debuff/low level trash cleaner. Limits movement, requires charging to increase a rather narrow cone it affects.

Her passive is an unreliable mess imo. Unless you're constantly on half/2 HP, you can't really make use of it. Have a healer frame on your team? Say bye bye to your passive.  

Main problem with Garuda is how restrictive her abilities are when it comes to mobility. Nuking as her also requires you to setup the nuke and manually aim it. Garuda has to utilize all of her abilities constantly. And Warframe, as we know, is all about mobility, button spams and reliable toggles. At least for most players. You can certainly learn to stay mobile as Garuda, but not everyone has time for learning, wink-wink.

Basically, Garuda isn't bad, she doesn't need a rework, she's just different and requires you to play differently from other frames.
