Balancing weapon/spell damage lines on sets.

Currently there's a "standard" of lines on sets
1096 mag/stam
1206 health
129 mag/stam recovery
129 weapon/spell damage
657 crit chance
etc
These are all balanced against each other to be roughly equal in value, though obviously which is preferred is situational.
In general, spell cost hasn't changed, pen/armor hasn't changed, etc. But LA/HA are now not affected by weapon/spell damage. That means the relative value of all the other lines has remained constant, but the weapon/spell damage line no longer affects LA/HA so it has less value since it now affects fewer actions. I feel like the value of that line should be reevaluated in the new context.
This isn't a complaint about any of the other changes, just a request to consider this consequent effect on the relative value of set lines.
