Experimental Fitting Recommendations - try it on SISI before you attempt on TQ, due to the randomness of the NPC groups, fits may not always work. Fits from higher tiers will work on lower versions also, keep this in mind.

Tier 5
Sacrilege - This is a universal fit, very expensive and high skill / implant requirements but it should be able to run all abyssal deadspace sites.
Gila - This is a universal fit, very expensive and high skill and implant requirements. Should be able to run all expect chaotic / raging dark filaments.
Vedmak - This fit is able to run some Chaotic Dark Filaments

Tier 4
Broadsword - Electrical Tier 4 and lower fit.
Gila - Firestorm Tier 4 and lower fit.

Tier 3
Gila - This is a universal fit for tier 3 sites and lower.
Vagabond - For tier 3 and lower.

More Fit recommendations will be added soon.
