[[Drifters|Drifters]] and [[seekers]] are sometimes encountered together but they can appear on their own too. They all deal omni-damage types and have flat omni-resist profiles.

Drifter ships most often start with damaged shields and armor. The battleship deals heavy damage but a cruiser can get under its guns to avoid taking hits. The battleship will also fly away from the player ship at a speed of around 300m/second and will try to drag the player to the boundary. The drifter cruisers all use some form of EWAR in addition to dealing damage.
The key ship in a Drifter room is '''Karybdis Tyrannos''', who flies a Drifter Battleship. This battleship has extremely long range, and will attempt to fly away from your ship(s) at around 300m/s, and drag you to the edge of the abyssal pocket. This can be very irritating, as it forces you to fly all the way back to the exit gate after the battleship finally dies; and during the time spent chasing it, you are vulnerable to its poorly-tracking but hard-hitting turrets. The strength of the battleship varies with the level of the Abyssal filament; higher-level filaments feature more damage and HP. Thankfully, the Drifter Battleship here does not come with either a Doomsday Weapon or any EWAR abilities.
 
Drifter ships start the fight with heavily damaged shields, armor, and hull. Drifter cruisers all use some form of EWAR in addition to dealing damage, however they also have large signature radii and are thus easy to finish off.
 
Seeker ships are far more generic than Drifter ships, and while they feature many forms of EWAR they also feature very thin armor.


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