No, she doesn't deserve pay equal to two actors who are better known outside the show, who have been in it since the beginning, who are indispensable to the ongoing plot, and who have more screen time AND more demanding roles, as well as long term contracts that constrain their career for the foreseeable future.

That said, I think a substantial pay raise is reasonable, but since she's made it clear she's weighing her options outside TWC I would also consider it reasonable for AMC to demand -at the very least- first refusal on her schedule for the next few years. Meaning in the event of scheduling conflicts, she's obligated to work on TWC. It would take someone VERY well established indeed to leverage free agent status like that, and expect to keep it.

I believe the actor's union term for this is "scale".

Not quite. Scale just refers to the minimum payments and working conditions outlined by the Union for a given role, based on various factors. It's got nothing to go with what everyone else is getting. Chances are Lauren Cohan is making way above scale already.
