I think +258 damage would be just a tad too much but some kind of buff to over time abilities would be vastly more interesting and fitting. Either +damage or +slightly longer uptime.

Anyway, I'm gonna rant some more about this dumb healing done passive:

1. Nowhere in the lore can I see a mention of deeply-rooted love for restoration in regards of argonian culture. The exact opposite is true, actually, argonians are one of the only two known races to have a "government" sanctioned, widely accepted guild of assassins, the Shadowscales. (The other such group is the Morag Tong)
In fact, Shadowscales are so accepted and respected that they get to act as a judge and arbitrator, their words and decisions accepted as law, as seen during the quest "The Assassin's Arbitration"
You could argue that not every argonian is a Shadowscale and sure enough, there are farmers, warriors, mages, thieves and etc. But it's an immutable fact that there's something that makes argonians a naturally talented and widely feared assassins and it's not their ability to heal their marks to death.

2. The whole healer thing also pretty much contradicts a central pillar of the recently released Murkmire DLC:
In it we got to explore the religion and philosophy of argonians: Sithis is change and change is good. Don't fight against the currents of life as it will only lead to you drowning.
While there is an inherent hypocrisy in this philosophy, most argonians really don't act like they accept anything passively and never fight back, but this is really not a philosophy that a race with natural healing talents would have.

The Old Sithis religion also doesn't really lend too much credibility to the deep seated love for restoration as it was basically 'sacrifice people to sate and fend of the Void'

3. Another way the whole healing thing is kinda contradicted in Murkmire: argonians have healers, namely Hands-That-Heal and Tuwul. A race that is naturally good at something would not need one imo (kinda a weak and dumb argument tho I guess).
However, Hands-That-Heal attributes his healing proficiency to his travels, not to a natural ability.
"I've already offered my services as a healer, of course. [* to the Bright-Throat Tribe] I have quite a bit of experience in the field, given my various travels.", implying it's not something that argonians are just naturally good at.

Also, we meet more artisans, thieves, necromancer outcasts, warriors, assassins/alchemists and priests than healers.

4. In past games their main prefered schools of magic were Mysticism and Illusion , aka utility spells, things that alter the perception and resources of others, like Chameleon, Silence, Absorb Stamina, etc. Not healing others.

5. A more ESO related pain point: When Khajiit got their controversial crit change it was explicitly changed to 'crit damage AND crit healing', essentially ensuring it's not a dead racial regardless of the role you choose.
Then why did a racial like the argonian healing done go to live unchanged when it's essentially a dead racial if you are a DD and barely relevant for tanks. It's not like all of the other passives argonians have are always relevant. Like disease resistance is useless for like 80% of PvE content and is really only good for PvP.


Another dumb lore breaking passive is the +1000 Health as it contradicts the -Endurance of older games, but whatever, I guess that this one is not that big of a deal; you could probably actually make an argument that the -Endurance was the bad, lore breaking passive as argonians are supposed to be 'resilient'.
But I still think +1000 stamina would be better as argonians are also supposed to be 'agile and speedy'.

Also, the removal of natural poison resistance that is actively being backed by ESO NPC dialogues.
