I think now you sort of did it over. In an average match, building ap-bruiser stuff (Merc, RoA, WotA, Rylai, Abyssal), you'll be running 300ish AP - with this setup you'll be gaining 1,2k health off your ultimate - twice as much as Nasus and Renekton. The damage may not seem much, but adding 6% current hp makes up the diffrence - not to mention it sets you up for a Tomb Raider snare, which I think more than equalizes it with those two.

To emphasize it - before you say something is UP, compare it to champions who play the same role. Zilean's Ult is more powerful in terms of healing - but hell, he is a support. A bruiser's role is o survive and deal damage, not to heal.
