Is ZOS ever going to update Ice Furnace?

Ice Furnace:
(2 items) Adds 1096 Max Magicka
(3 items) Adds 833 Spell Critical
(4 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage
(5 items) When you deal direct damage with a Frost Damage ability, you have a 50% chance to deal an additional 997 Flame Damage to all enemies within 8 meters around the initial target. This effect can occur once every 1 second.

So, this is a completely antiquated, relic set that has a piece of weapon damage in a magicka-based set. It's not like modern sets that offer 129 weapon and spell damage on a hybrid set, either. It's just from the old era that used to base spell power off weapon damage. I've had pieces shoved in my bank for such a long time- it'd take a Necromancer to dig it up from the grave. It has such potential for a fun set for a Warden or Necromancer.

@ZOS_GinaBruno and @ZOS_BrianWheeler - could you please update this set in the next upcoming patches? Maybe replace the weapon damage item with something more useful like spell damage, spell penetration, max health, max stamina, healing received, or anything that would help a heavy armor magicka-based set like this? Thanks!

    I mean, 99% of the sets (not an exaggeration) are outdated to bad. The 4-5 they contemporize with every patch don’t outpace the new releases (6-12 sets). We need a massive set balancing pass. Especially for crap like this and most of the crafted ones.
