Well first there's the rather obvious Oneiros Headgear that you either already swap to midcast, would like to if only you had it, or neglect to do in favor of an increased chance at set effect procs (obviously a mistake if you're going for consistent damage). I'd imagine you've thought of that though.
I've never tested any of the 'adds damage to magic burst' items but form what I've seen it appears they come in two strengths: 3% and 5%. Sorcerer's gloves and static earring each give a 5% bonus while the mujin band and (low level) channeling robe give 3%. I don't know where the Menhit leggings fall, but if they give 5% they might be worth looking at instead given that they also offer 4MAB. You could then keep your strendu ring, essentially swapping the 10 INT from Goetia sabots +2 for 8MAB and (possibly) +2% MB bonus. Even if it's the same 3% bonus that combination should come out on top.
What's less clear (to me), is whether or not simply swapping the Hecate's for a static and leaving everything else as it is would be the best option. Dropping mujin for strendu and hecate's for static should yield a loss of 2MAB for a gain of 2% MB bonus.
I should note again that I haven't tested any of those items so the numbers are only what I've seen reported on sites like this one, the wiki, BG, etc.
Also, as was mentioned, the ranged slot should be changed out for damage rather than Macc even if it is disappointing to remove what used to be a ridiculously rare and awesome item (actually I guess it is still pretty rare and awesome).
