    Inconsistency/error in "Raziq" items

    There are three crafting items whose names begin with "Raziq:" Raziqsand and Raziqsap from ARR, and Raziqcoat from Heavensward. Variously, they claim to be:
    • "Discovered by a Far Eastern alchemist" (Raziqsand)
    • "Developed by a Far Eastern alchemist" (Raziqsap)
    • "Developed by a Near Eastern alchemist (Raziqcoat)

    However, referring to the Japanese text, all three involve "近東の錬金術師アブダルラジク," meaning "the Near Eastern alchemist Abdulraziq." Additionally, both Raziqsand and Raziqcoat were "発見した" (discovered), while only Raziqsap was "発明した" (developed/invented). Based on this, it seems that it would be accurate to change these items' descriptions to claim that they were:
    • "Discovered by a Near Eastern alchemist" (Raziqsand)
    • "Developed by a Near Eastern alchemist" (Raziqsap)
    • "Discovered by a Near Eastern alchemist (Raziqcoat)

    Interesting. It would definitely make sense to straighten them all out to "Near Eastern", but perhaps the developed-vs-discovered needs review in all languages? I would expect sand and sap to be discoveries while a "coat" is something developed – although having checked the full English descriptions, they're all described as powders even though the sap has a bottle icon vs the other two having the "powder on a sheet of paper" icon.
