In Pacific Drive, one of the last resources you'll come across is Olympium, an endgame material. Many of the higher-tier upgrades, tools, and car parts require you to have a sizable amount of it. While it isn't useful for much of the game, it will immensely help you craft items to traverse the dangerous Deep-Zone.

Here's the schema for these schematics.
PostsIt can be difficult to find, however, leading some players to be stuck wondering where to look for this precious resource. The difficulty is raised because it's found in the Deep-Zone, a hostile place that always seems to want to push you out of the area. Thankfully, this guide has got you covered.
Where To Find Olympium
Olympium is found in the Deep-Zone, the last zone you'll gain access to; to get to it, you'll have to traverse the Outer-Zone and Mid-Zone, witheach one getting increasingly more dangerous. The fastest way is to take one of the highways that land you closest to the Deep-Zone and go on from there.
When looking at the Route Planner or Route Map, you'll see the Deep-Zone in the top left, making it the smallest portion of the in-game world. However, the material can still be hard to find even after you gain access to this part of the zone, as it is scarce and intentionally made difficult to acquire a large amount of it at one time.
So, you'll need to make many trips to the Deep-Zone for all your crafting needs. Also, keep in mind you'll need to spend a considerable amount of time driving around the Deep-Zone, the most dangerous of the three.
What you'll need to look for are decaying stone towers rising from the ground, being held together by red veins and roots, which can be tricky to spot because the Deep-Zone is dark and perpetually overcast. Many structures and entities glow with red hues too, which makes it easy to miss what you're looking for.
A true Olympium Vein will havepurple crystals growing near the base, so if you can make out some purple hues on a stone tower from a distance, that means there's Olympium there. Drive there, and get in and out as quickly as you can, as the Deep-Zone is ever-changing, which can negatively shift the situation you're in very quickly.
How To Harvest Olympium
Once you make it to the glowing purple crystals, you'll need to harvest them to get Olympium Fragments. Each node will give you a handful of them, so don't expect a similar amount to when you harvest Marsh Eggs or Swamp Coral; just break the crystals and take that Olympium.
You'll need a Magnetic Hammer to harvest the crystals. An Impact Hammer won't be enough.
What To Craft With Olympium
Now, once you get your precious Olympium, what do you do with it? A few different things. You can use it to craft the following:
- LIM Chip
- Olympium Torch
- Reinforced Headlight
- Olympium Bumper
- Olympium Panel
- Olympium Door
- Mobile Workbench
- LIM-Chipped Engine
- Anti-Grav Emitter
The LIM Chip will be used to construct items, as it is a crafting component. So, while the items on the list above require raw Olympium Fragments, some items will require LIM Chips, which are crafted using Olympium.
