<p>24.101.63.204: /* Trivia */</p> <hr /> <div>{{Era|AC4}}<br /> {{Spoilerhd}}<br /> {{Stub}}<br /> [[File:AC4 El Impoluto.png|thumb|250px|El Impoluto]]<br /> '''''El Impoluto''''' (English: ''The Pristine'') was one of five [[Man O' War#Legendary ships|legendary ships]] encountered by the [[Piracy|pirate]] [[Edward Kenway]] in the [[Caribbean]], during the 18th century [[Golden Age of Piracy]]. She could be found sailing in the Gulf of Mexico.<br /> <br /> ''El Impoluto'' was among the fastest and most maneuverable vessels in the [[Spain|Spanish]] [[Spanish Navy|Navy]], easily outpacing and outsteering smaller vessels such as the ''[[Jackdaw]]'' despite her size. The ship was also unique in that she was the only [[Man O' War]] known to have a naval ram, though she also possessed very powerful broadside cannons and chase guns.<br /> <br /> Her battle strategy consisted of one of relentless aggression. Immediately upon sighting an enemy, she made straight for it at top speed and rammed it; her ram was extremely powerful, causing massive damage with a single hit. After ramming, ''El Impoluto'' would withdraw a short distance before using her great maneuverability to turn tightly, aiming to make another ram attempt. However, if she was attacked repeatedly while charging, she would break off. Her broadside cannons were generally used only as a secondary weapon, though they did great damage to an enemy ship if it was in heavy shot range.<br /> <br /> Despite her advantages, ''El Impoluto'' was eventually sunk by Edward Kenway's ''Jackdaw''.<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> *''Impoluto'' is Spanish for &quot;spotless, unblemished, unpolluted&quot;.<br /> *After he successfully destroyed all legendary ships, Edward was rewarded with ''El Impoluto''&lt;nowiki&gt;'&lt;/nowiki&gt;s charge attack for the ''Jackdaw''. When used, the ''Jackdaw''&lt;nowiki&gt;'&lt;/nowiki&gt;s speed was temporarily increased in order to deliver devastating damage with the ram.<br /> *The wheel and figurehead of ''El Impoluto'' can be gained through the completion of community challenges.<br /> *Although Edward Kenway defeats the ship in the story, it is actually impossible to beat the ship in game. Its too fast to keep up with, its ram attack needs no space to do devastating damage, and its broadside attack fires over 100 cannonballs at once, making it impossible to avoid taking massive damage. Why ubisoft made an enemy that is completely impossible to beat has yet to be discovered.<br /> <br /> ==Reference==<br /> *''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''<br /> {{AC4}}<br /> [[Category:Legendary ships]]<br /> [[Category:Spanish Navy warships]]</div>
