A ship?

The ship Nestor sails is in both appearance and Ikaros-sight indistinguishable from other elite Persian triremes. Given this, it's arguable whether or not 'Formidable' is merely an epithet of Nestor, not in fact a ship at all, same as 'the Broker' is for Sophos, or 'the All-Seeing' is for Augos, and so on and so forth. Nestor's in-game bio certainly doesn't suggest that it's anything but an epithet. Sadelyrate (siniath) 09:35, June 17, 2020 (UTC)

Ship names pop up when you look at them via Ikaros though. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 10:54, June 17, 2020 (UTC)

Like I said, the ship Nestor's on is indistinguishable. Its name is just as random as any other ship's. Even when viewed as Ikaros.Sadelyrate (siniath) 10:58, June 17, 2020 (UTC)

Do any of the clues mention anything? Lacrossedeamon (talk) 13:14, June 17, 2020 (UTC)

Just read them, and nothing there about a ship named Formidable, either. Sadelyrate (siniath) 13:49, June 17, 2020 (UTC)

Weird. I mean there’s the sails and the figurehead but the "of the formidable" could just be referencing Nestor rather than the ship as assumed. I guess put a deletion proposal on here or at least a name change. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 14:47, June 17, 2020 (UTC)
