I made a metric fuck ton doing Abyss with deli, racing around to Rakiata/Garu/Boss fragments throwing out deli on city areas and getting free simulacrums (that I didn’t run) I had a headhunter on like day 3. Once my map was just filled with free deli, I replaced the deli maps with ritual maps, If I had a free overrun with free deli I would add breach with ritual, only using maps and tablets I made myself and would sell any big ticket tablet i crafted.
In the early stages you are weak but you can prepare the map for when you get stronger and still make good money because Abyss is super fucking cheap to run and you don’t have to be strong, except for being strong in your pull out game. I really like how they give you all this free shit for doing shit you normally do and if you play it right it helps you juice the fuck out of things while not spending money.
The only down side is the fucking tablets, not getting them, swapping them and inspecting them when going from one map to the next. The content creators are right, the worst thing in the game right now is tablets, scarabs are superior, I’d add get rid of 4 tablet city biome.
