Abyssal Deadspace: Difference between revisions

'''Abyssal Deadspace''' is a mysterious area of isolated space which players can enter to try to complete time-limited PvE combat challenges in order to obtain lucrative rewards.

[[File:Triglavian Bioadaptive Cache.jpg|thumb|200px|'''Triglavian Bioadaptive Cache''' contains the loot for each pocket.]]

[[File:Triglavian extractionNodes.jpg|thumb|200px|'''Triglavian Extraction Nodes''' also contains the loot.]]

Cache wrecks can be salvaged for Triglavian materials, though the time- and ISK-efficiency of doing this is dubious.

=== Time and space limits ===

'''The deadspace instance is stable for only 20 minutes. If you are still in the pocket after 20 minutes your ship and your pod will be immediately destroyed'''.

You must clear the three pockets and exit within the allocated time, or you will lose both your ship and your pod. The third pocket gate returns you to the location in space where you activated the filament. To finish the Abyssal run within the 20-minute limit, you must achieve a faster average pocket clear time than 6.66 minutes.

[[File:Triglavian_gates.jpg|thumb|750px|center|Three types of gates you will encounter are: Triglavian Origin Conduit, Triglavian Transfer Conduit, and Triglavian Proving Conduit. These gates will be folded closed until all enemies have been destroyed, after which they will (quite spectacularly) open and energize. A gate with a triangle in the center means you still have more pockets to go! (Note that at the time of writing, fall 2021, the Proving Conduit does not appear; its mechanic has been replaced by the Triglavian Proving Grounds.)]]

Abyssals are unforgiving to inexperienced, ill-equipped or foolhardy pilots. If your ship is lost inside the site, you will lose your capsule, clone, and any implants equipped as well. Running Abyssals can be a fun and profitable challenge, but '''do not enter Abyssal Deadspace with a ship or with implants that you [[Golden_Rules#Be_able_to_afford_a_loss|cannot afford to lose]].'''

The same gimmick that applies to Rogue Drone Battleships also applies to Drifter battleships, albeit even easier to exploit, which can greatly benefit afterburner-focused cruisers; if the pocket happens to spawn an '''Ephialtes Lancer''', the battleship will follow it in orbit and as a result move closer to you, making it significantly easier to get under its guns and save a lot of stress.  This does not work with any other Sleeper/Drifter cruiser types.

'''Drifter Cruisers will all be named '''Scylla Tyrannos''', and so their ''type'' must be checked to see their abilities.'''

=== Sleeper Drones ===

Sleeper drones fire EM/Thermal turrets (and the cruisers have irritatingly high tracking and range), and Kinetic/explosive missiles (with poor flight speed and application).

=== Triglavian Collective ===

Triglavian ships almost all feature Remote Armor Repair abilities, and mount the widest range of EWAR of any Abyssal faction.

=== Sansha's Nation ===

All Sansha's Nation ships have the '''Devoted''' prefix.

=== CONCORD ===

CONCORD rooms are generally feared by many Abyssal runners due to their high damage and heavy damage-application support.  The sheer incoming DPS, combined with the multiple Webs and Target Painters, makes passive or active tanking in these rooms extremely difficult.  Because of this, Marshal rats (especially Drainers) are often targeted first to reduce incoming DPS.   

The three saving graces when fighting CONCORD/EDENCOM ships are:

# Vorton Projectors will chain their damage to ''any'' objects within 10km of your ship, and can thus be exploited into dealing friendly fire damage to other enemy CONCORD/EDENCOM ships

All CONCORD and EDENCOM ships have the '''Disparu Troop''' suffix.

=== Angel Cartel ===

[[Angel Cartel]] rooms are the bane of fast and evasive ships. Angel Cartel ships have extremely high flight speeds, rather small signature radii, good range, varied damage types, and varied EWAR. The Cynabal is especially problematic, as it features all of these abilities combined in one ship.

Abyssal Deadspace is dangerous, but the rewards can be worthwhile. Abyssal Deadspace is the only source for many valuable items found in the Caches and Extraction Nodes/Subnodes. No wrecks are left behind by any NPCs, and all drops come from these two listed cans.

* [[Mutaplasmids]] that can be used to change the stats of certain modules. Which mutaplasmids are able to drop depends on the weather selected:

** '''Electrical''' sites can drop '''capacitor''' related mutaplasmids - S/M/L Cap Battery, S/M/L Energy Neutralizer, S/M/L Energy Nosferatu

** '''Exotic''' sites can drop '''tackle''' related mutaplasmids - Stasis Webifier, Warp Disruptor, Warp Scrambler

** '''T6 filaments''' can drop '''capital module''' mutaplasmids - All capital-sized versions of the modules above, plus Ancillary Shield Booster/Armor Repairer, Heavy Warp Disruptor/Scrambler, and Siege Module

* Precursor ship and weapon skill books, disintegrator specialization skill books

* Triglavian Survey Database: often referred to as "red loot", this item is an ISK token item similar to Sleeper "blue loot" and Overseer's Personal Effects in that it can be sold to unlimited NPC buy orders for a fixed price, in this case, 100,000 ISK/ea

* Abyssal Filaments:

** the Bioadaptive/Biocombinative Caches in Abyssal Deadspace can drop filaments of all tiers

** it is therefore only by running Abyssals that the filaments for higher-tier Abyssal runs can be found, and there is a busy market in retrieved filaments
