What about Heavy Assault Cruiser 5 and Drone Interfacing 5? Thank you in advance!

[@i-401_yt]

@@serndfreaky2113 Heavy Assault Cruiser 5 doesn't really matter as it only gives a bonus to Sentries and a bit to drone range. If you are fine on those it is fine. I didn't add Drone Interfacing 5 as it is such an endless skill but not needed for T5 Abyss. For T6 Abyss it is though.

Brilliant stuff here and great channel. Lurking a bit in the shadows. Have run 250+ T4 Firestorm abyss and now want to level up. Wondering why you keep on saying it's literally impossible to die unless you fall off the toilet. Can you explain why this ship is so suited (with fit and skills) and hard to die? Thanks

I updated the Abyss Cheat Sheet in the description as the old one got deleted. Now at least it can't go away anymore since I reposted it

uhhh 1.9B fit, no wonder its easy xD sadly i don't have that much money, and with such money i would be scared of losing it

[@i-401_yt]

I updated the fitting in the description. It now costs 2.2bil instead of 3bil, meaning it actually is cheap too.

[@baab8480]

Brother. You specifically advice people to bring 4 geckos in the video. to make sure you don't get defanged and lose your ship. Then you change the fit in the description to only have 2 geckos. Why? The whole reduction is basically the removal of 2 geckos. Barely anything else.

​@thecomposerchanginggames5250 for end game there must be a more suitable blitzer with that cost range

[@shadowsandfire]

The title of the video clearly says endgame not rookie 😅

[@ilyabakh]

you can tachnically do t5/6 gamma in a suicidal vagabond 500m fit (skips crystal for instance for shield boost extender whatever its called and 2 ancils so its dirt cheap) but it will be A LOT HARDER LIKE A LOT to pilot correctly. That one is a true challenge to do without blowing up. In general the more you bling your abyss runners the safer they are. So technically you could start in that cheap version and as you make more isk you bling yourself up to nake it easier and easier

[@oneton7292]

Thx for this. I'll work towards it. As it is now, being Alpha, can I use a Vexor for T2 or T3 until I get the isk and skills to move up? Do you have a fit for the Vexor?

[@i-401_yt]

You can use a Vexor Navy Issue or a Worm. I made a video on both too if you check out my channel.

How does it compared to the gila? Whats the better/easier/better paying ship

[@i-401_yt]

The biggest difference is that in this Ship it is in T5 literally impossible to die. You can actually go down in cost by another 800mil and it most likely is still more than enough, but this is like the safest fit I can give. Not dying is preferable to dying.

[@fatiguejras]

Get into abyss thinking its an isk printer. Get killed twice in a bling fit. You are set back so hard you'll pull your hair out. No thank you, Id rather do burner missions and afk mining.

[@i-401_yt]

For big ISK you gotta take some Risk. Once you get good at this makes you a lot more than AFK Mining. So why not risk for a big payoff in the end? Not to mention that burners aren't inherintly cheap to get into either.

[@fatiguejras]

@@i-401_yt mining is definitely not the most profitable thing in this game, but also the only one where you can do it watching Netflix ;). Burners can be expensive but not all of them (and you can also decline, can’t be said for abyss rng).Combined with mission blitzing it’s a good payout with minimum risk. I just got too burned on abyssal I guess.

[@caffeinejavacode1475]

how many isk per hour in T5?

[@i-401_yt]

After having run it for an incredibly looong time. Rn it is *after filament cost* ~200-300mil / h. That is because T5 filaments are through the roof ( when I made the video it was 10mil per filament, now Chaotic Gamma filaments are 17mil a pop), however, T5 is so much easier and less risk that it kinda is worth it. I would just suggest buying filaments and selling loot on an alt so no one uses market orders to try to gank you (you can see who buys what you put on the market and some people put large quantities of filaments on the market to find abyss runners to gank)

[@Jan4043]

Will try this , if no sites in my hole , thx

[@spamprotection9763]

Yep, died on test server using this fit. It doesnt do enough dps.

Please make sure you have the skills listed in the description. With good skills it deals 940+ dps. I have run on the live server 160 runs in a row without dying so far so it kinda does work x)

[@karlbroberg1652]

does the cheap fit just work in gamma T5's or do you have a variant for other t5's?

Is there a specific reason for the mishmash of drones VS just using 5 heavies?

[@i-401_yt]

geckos use 2x the amount of space vs regular heavies, so the best option after that for max DPS is 2 mediums, 1 light, as they do more DPS vs 1 heavy.

[@danschmidt6206]

The mishmash of drones gives you higher DPS over a flight of heavies. Also, you can snipe the cans with the warrior and then drop an MTU by the gate to avoid having to slow boat to cans.

the stormbringer is used commonly for t5 and t6 electricals, though getting two battleship rooms in a row is practically death, otherwise most of the time its one of the fastest options for blitzing

Storm bringer is an absolute monster in the Abyss, but it cannot survive 3x long rooms in t6. Dies to time due to poor single target dps.

These things should be disclosed up front, at the beginning of the video: "Hi there, I'm I-402, and today I'll be showing you this T5/T6 Ishtar. You should know up front that I'm testing it on the test server, which you probally can't; and that the fit costs between 2 and 3 billion ISK on the main server. Now let's get into it."

[@arturoxtv8278]

Awesome this is nice, but will take a year to get to this level, I'm 3 months in Eve and I can't get higher than T1 because every mistake cost me 1-2 days to grind it back, it's only easy if u know what u doing and u know eve online. As I'm a new player every mistake I make costs me a lot, as I don't know every ship's name and faction and what each does, and I will not start even for weapon types and range distance billion things that could bring you to death. As a new player, this game is very unwelcoming new players and very hard to learn + it skill-based game. Where u need to wait weeks/months to even be Officiant on your ship? CCP should rework the T0-T3 abyss as a learning curve for new players where u can learn mechanics ships and tactics, without losing your ship. same for mining ships there is no point using higher then Venture ships it cost 2m-50m and u can make from 4-50mil+ each cargo, where u looking at T2-T3 mining ships they are useless why should I use 300mil ship, when it takes years to fill your cargo and even if u get full cargo, u need run like x5-10 times to break even. So many nonsense things are bad and unbalanced, and this game have like 25 years bin online, ouch, is still a long way to go.

[@Feracitus]

as a new player you're better off hunting for DED escalations.

[@Shiftry87]

​@@Feracitus That can be a good source of income but if u dont have a decent T2 cruiser or a T3 destroyer the escalations themselfs is imo hardly worth running. They can for sure be done, i have done several Guristas 4/10 in a T1 Vexor cruiser but it was a VERY slow and grindy process and unless u really bling it out which u likly cant even do u have to kite the shit out of both rooms to not be overwealmed by incoming dmg. WH and NS exploration is something i would recommend a new player to try out. It requires some knowledge what class of WH u wanna try and scan in and what data/relic sites are rat free but it also teaches u how to activly use D-Scan and how to stay safe. U will lose ships this way its gonna happen but the T1 exploration ship and fit is so cheap that the only thing of value u gonna lose is gonna be the loot and never the ship itself.

You can actually get away with fitting it a lot cheaper, but the point of the fitting is that you do not die at all. Like yes, you can run T5 Abyss in this for like 2b but why risk it if you can just 100% survive all the time and not farm to farm back your ship.
