Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXVII! (Localization Koji Fox)

[Punchatrain]

I have a question about the "Ring of Lasting Shelter" item, more specifically the naming of it. Like all Behemoth items that can be obtained from the token that drops from the Behemoth FATE, they're all references to the FFXI drops for King Behemoth. For the most part, everything that came from FFXI KB has had their names retained, in both the EN and JP text. However, the original "Defending Ring" was changed to "Ring of Lasting Shelter". My question is why is the English name so much different from FFXI to FFXIV, when it's clear that these items were a direct reference to FFXI?

The hardcore FFXI players have had fond memories of camping KB back in the day, so seeing this was a bit odd. Always bugged me since the start of ARR.
