I decided to try Abyssal space, got a Cormorant fit from a YouTuber and it works great on T0 Exotic. I’ve made several dozen runs all without any issues. I was wondering if anyone has run T1 or T2 in a Cormorant and how did it do? With my current skills, I have 168dps and 5897ehp with this fit: 125mm Prototype Gauss w/Caldari Navy Antimatter TE-2100 w/ Caldari Navy Scourge 2x F-S9 Regolith Shield Extenders 1MN Y-S8 Afterburner 2x Vortex Magnetic Field stabilizer Small EM shield extender I Small Core Defense Field extender I Small Warhead Malefaction Catalyst I Any thoughts on how this would do in a T1 or T2? ---

T1 is doable, forget T2. And you will need to kite, some spawns you can’t really beat close range, a destroyer gets less speed from an AB and has a larger signature than a frigate, which means you will eat a lot more damage. T1 destroyers are pretty flimsy, I doubt you can win the DPS race against 2 Kikimoras or a Vedmak when brawling them. ---

Got the nerve to try a T1 in the Cormorant, died in 1 min and 30 sec. That didn’t go as well as I hoped, thought I would at least get through the first pocket. RIP Cormorant, it was fun while it lasted, time to FIT another and go back T0’s for a bit 🙁 ---

I recommend Aceface on YouTube, he seems to be the go to person on abyssals. I have successfully done his [T2 in a Caracal](https://youtu.be/ALM9Fyh4oRk?feature=shared) and his [T1 in a Punisher](https://youtu.be/5E4HanRreVk?feature=shared). Not everything he does works, so be sure to watch the whole video. He posts his failures too. Have fun! ---

Thanks for the resource Princess - I’ve already added a few of his videos to my playlist. ---
