Inconsistent Localization of the Twelve Gear PVP Weapons

[glitteringcosmos]

A bit late in the realization, but I was buying some Twelve weapons at the Wolf Marks vendor and realized the localizations for them are inconsistent.

The pre-Stormblood DOW weapons are titled as thus:

• Sword and Shield of the Fury
• Axe of the Fury
• Guillotine of the Fury
• Spear of the Fury
• Knuckles of the Keeper
• Pugiones of the Keeper
• Bow of the Wanderer
• Revolver of the Wanderer

But then the newest Twelve DOW weapon, the SAM weapon, is called the Katana of Althyk rather than Katana of the Keeper.

Additionally, the DOM weapons are all titled in the same way, [weapon] of Thaliak, rather than remaining consistent with the DOW weapons, as in [weapon] of the Scholar. This includes the newest Twelve DOM weapon, the RDM weapon.

• Staff of Thaliak
• Index of Thaliak
• Rapier of Thaliak
• Wand of Thaliak
• Codex of Thaliak
• Globe of Thaliak

I believe for consistency's sake, it should be all localized one way or the other. The body gearsets are all consistent in following the same formula of [Deity]'s [Gear Piece] of [Role], so I'm not sure why the weapons are the only things that are inconsistent.

I don't have any good arguments for the Althyk/Keeper stuff but weapons "of the Scholar" might raise a few eyebrows because one of the playable jobs is also called Scholar. Or, conceivably, someone might completely ignore the weapons of the Scholar as a possibility for their job just because they have Scholar in the name.

Idle thought not connected to localisation, but I hope we can get a second series of Twelve-themed gear to add whichever gods we don't have costumes for by the end of Myths of the Realm.

Wouldn't be surprised if you are right that they didn't use "the Scholar" just to avoid confusion over the Scholar class.
