Possible rooms in Abyssal Deadspace

This page should be updated due to game changes.
Reason: Needs description for each room for tier 1-6. Needs more data for all tiers. Needs to be updated with the Depths of the Abyss update

This is an overview of the different groups of NPCs that can be faced in the Abyssal Deadspace in the different tiers.

General notes

Vila Swarmers DO NOT need to be destroyed; they will deactivate when their linked ship is destroyed and if they are still there, if all other ships are destroyed, the conduit will still unlock. Sleeper frigates and cruisers, Drifter cruisers, and rogue drone frigates and battlecruisers like to target drones, so watch them and recall them if necessary.

Harrowing Vedmaks do not use target painters despite their prefix normally indicating so.

Triglavian and Rogue Drone rooms may not be fully accurate as the enemies will typically spawn interchangably regardless of faction.

Rooms labeled DPS check rooms typically take the longest on an EHP-average, but this may vary in reality due to the different NPC AI mechanics.

Loot

Triglavian Extraction Nodes/SubNodes are not present in T0 Abyssal sites.

The amount of loot are determined with the number of filament used. (e.g. Frigate gets 3 times the loot of a Cruiser because Frigate uses 3 filaments per run.) Extraction Node/SubNode loot is not modified by number of filament used, but increases with difficulty tier.
