Whilst Gilas or HACs can be used for advanced Abyssal sites, the faithful Hawk, normally used for 3 man sites, is more than capable of putting in Solo work in T1-3 Abyssals for those on a budget.
These sites follow the usual pattern for the abyss as detailed below. For T3 sites we would recommend Blue Pill & Pyrolancia.

Quick Recap:
- There are 5 different types of weather effects in the sites, each with their own site bonus and weakness.
- The NPCs you face inside the Abyssal Deadspace are random.
- Once you enter an Abyssal Deadspace, a 20 minute timer begins. If the site is not completed within that time limit, you lose your ship and pod.
- Loot is found in Triglavian Bioadaptive Cache (main loot for cruiser sites), Triglavian Biocombinative Cache (main loot for frigate sites), and Triglavian Extraction Nodes and SubNodes. NPCs leave no wrecks to loot or salvage, although cache wrecks can be salvaged for Triglavian materials.
- With the Onslaught expansion, a player-versus-player element was added to Abyssal Deadspace, accessed optionally through a second exit gate (named Triglavian Proving Conduit)in the final room of Tier 3 sites and higher.
Once you enter the pocket, look for and kite / kill Dissipator, Nullcharge, Starving, and Firewatcher type ships first - these neutralize energy.
Next priorities are Spearfisher, Anchoring, Nullwarp types since they scram your MWD. Next targets are Renewing, Plateforger, Fieldweaver (logistics). Dead last are Entangler, Tangling, Snarecaster & Wardens- these web you. Aforementioned are the default priorities, which are abstract.
As you practice, it'll become apparent that which types are present / how many of each there are defines your effective priorities.
