Tip to get Abyss Veteran quickly.

[iGGTheEnd]

Abyss Veteran is for entering the abyss 999 times, this would be grindy but you can get in in about 20-30 minutes pretty easily.

 

First enter the Abyss

 

Press Start

 

L1 over to Quick Restart. 

 

When you click "Quick restart" spam X and it will count as restarting multiple times.  

 

Before going for this trophy I had entered the abyss around 70 times,  then I started this method and got the trophy in about 20 minutes.  This should save hours of grinding.

 

Took 20 minutes on PS5 with quick loading times so it may take a bit longer on PS4 but not too long, I cant remember how long loading times were on PS4.

I can confirm that this method works with the current version 1.04.

Method still working on the last update, Cornucopia update. Got it on PS4.

okay it just worked for me, and I think I figured out how/why based on how much time it took

 

TLDR: it saves how many times you mash X between clicking "quick restart" and when "saving" appears on the bottom right-hand corner of the screen

 

Fun Version because I'm proud I cracked the code: it takes about 6 seconds to land, click quick restart, load, and land again. That process, times 999 means it would take 99.9 minutes to farm without the use of this method. This method took me about 15 or so minutes, which averages to 6.6 "Quick Restarts" per actual restart. I counted between 5 and 8 button presses between clicking Restart and seeing the "Saving" pop-up, which makes sense and would average to 6.5 so a 6.6 is right on the money. So, when doing this method, you don't have to mash X for the entirety of the loading screen, just when selecting "quick restart" and can stop when you see "saving"

It's also worth noting that you can use this time to grind the secret room "Demolition Expert" trophy if you do this as Wade. when you drop in, look for a secret room in that first room and go into it if there is one. Once you enter, then quick restart as usual. Just checked this method, and it does indeed work. Progress is saved when using quick restart (at least as far as the 'collectible'-type trophies go)

 

You can also check the shop if there's one in the first room for a roulette machine while you're doing this
