Random question about Passive: Sword and Board

Passive: Sword and Board
Increases your Weapon Damage by 5% and the amount of damage you can block by 20%

I know this might seem like a random subject to mention, but should it say: Increases your Damage by 5% and the amount of damage you can block by 20%. Because there isn't just stamina builds that use Sword and Shield, but I've noticed magicka as well.

So I was wondering if in the future, might we see a change with that passive: Sword and Board?

    I'm not against it. Though..

    Being solely a weapon damage buff, I doubt it. ESO has a murky future, I don't think anybody can accurately guess what's going to come out of the dev team beyond a few months, at this point.

    While I dont disagree, in large part because I do tank, and use mostly mag skills. In Cryodiil, there are a lot of S&B DPS builds out there. Warden meta is 2H/S&B as well Templar often run them, because they dont have an easy escape

    ZOS would like magicka builds to use a frost staff,with the Trifocus passive for their tanking, but that's mostly relegated to a back bar weapon on niche builds.

    I doubt it as it is a stamina based weapon. I know it’s not used like that all the time but it is.
