This site will require proficiency in mining, drones, repair, and capacitor transfer. After an initial setup period of 90 seconds, asteroids from beyond the rift will appear and a timer will begin. The site will progress through a total of 9 waves divided into three tiers. The enemy fleet compositions will become more difficult and the wave timers become shorter with each tier.
 
During each wave, a random Abyssal [[Abyssal Deadspace#Weather Effects|Weather]] effect will begin and 12 asteroids will spawn in fixed locations. Each asteroid contains 24 ore ([[Media:Admixti mutanite description.jpg|Admixti Mutanite]]), each with a mass of 4{{m3}}, for a total of 96{{m3}}. The presence of these asteroids causes an anti-warp [[Tackling#Warp disruption fields|bubble]] until all 12 are depleted.
 
Mining the asteroids can also expose Faulty Triglavian caches containing artifacts. These caches are time-limited structures and must be destroyed quickly to recover their contents.
 
 
 
A wave is cleared only if all asteroids are depleted before the timer ends; otherwise, the site fails. The warp disruption bubble remains until every asteroid is mined. Each completed wave pays out based on its [[#Rewards|difficulty tier]].<gallery>

Abyssal Artifact Recovery Miner

This site will require proficiency in mining, drones, repair, and capacitor transfer. After an initial setup period of 90 seconds, asteroids from beyond the rift will appear and a timer will begin. The site will progress through a total of 9 waves divided into three tiers. The enemy fleet compositions will become more difficult and the wave timers become shorter with each tier.

During each wave, a random Abyssal Weather effect will begin and 12 asteroids will spawn in fixed locations. Each asteroid contains 24 ore (Admixti Mutanite), each with a mass of 4 m3, for a total of 96 m3. The presence of these asteroids causes an anti-warp bubble until all 12 are depleted.

Mining the asteroids can also expose Faulty Triglavian caches containing artifacts. These caches are time-limited structures and must be destroyed quickly to recover their contents.


A wave is cleared only if all asteroids are depleted before the timer ends; otherwise, the site fails. The warp disruption bubble remains until every asteroid is mined. Each completed wave pays out based on its difficulty tier.

Hostiles

Each wave spawns an enemy fleet belonging to one of three factions: Sleepers, Rogue Drones, or Triglavians. Fleet compositions are randomized and may include logistics, capacitor neutralizers, and other forms of EWAR. Enemies persist until destroyed, so maintaining a minimum level of DPS is essential to avoid being overwhelmed.

WARNING: After the 9th and final wave, a 60-second evacuation timer begins. When it ends, a Drifter response fleet led by Tyrannos Basileus will arrive in overwhelming force. No vessel can survive the Basileus battleship’s superweapon.
