Exactly. It makes an otherwise perfect Kaom’s with a corruption a piece of crap in comparison. Although that is fairly boring item outside of the huge flat life bonus,

I also agree that the language for the set life and mana affixes is a little ambiguous.

Either way I would think you would want to allow different affixes of sets to grant the bonuses for having a set of “affix types” in your gear rather than needing to have matching set affixes.

For example, if I have two rings, ring one with the set affix “+2 mana per item equipped with this affix type A” and the ring two with the set affixes “+1 Life per item equipped with this affix type A” and “+1 mana per item equipped with this affix type B." I will have +5 Mana and +2 Life total from this combination of gear (+2 Mana from ring one with an additional +2 Mana bonus coming from ring two for sharing set affix type A, plus the +1 Mana from affix type B; and +1 Life from ring two with an additional +1 Life bonus coming from ring one for sharing set affix type A.)
