From the beginning of Mediterranean exploration in the 15th and 16th centuries, all the way to the time transitioning on into the start of World War I, Altis has always had a steady presence of ships and other watercraft roaming its’ blue coasts. The waters have attracted many not only due to their warm temperatures or unreal scenery but because of what lays on the sea bed. Ships have long carried goods and trinkets to and from Altis, some of which carried precious treasures. Unfortunately for some of these ship captains, pirates or the force of nature were not always on their side. Ultimately, the waters consumed their ships. Now, 21st-century salvagers with modern diving equipment can take the treasures just waiting to be picked, along with other items. What is loot and trash is subjective; one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

Before starting this run, you must check that you have all the necessary gear needed. Besides the usual Food, Water, and Redgull, salvagers will need their dedicated set of "Excavation Tools'' and diving gear (scuba suit, rebreather oxygen device, scuba goggles). Most of these items are found at the dedicated Dive Shops; however, backpacks are located in the clothing store. It is recommended that this run be done with a bergen backpack (largest backpack) and with either an [https://wiki.olympus-entertainment.com/wiki/Civilian_Vehicles SDV Submarine] (safest) or a [https://wiki.olympus-entertainment.com/wiki/Civilian_Vehicles Speedboat] (fastest and holds more than a SDV).

Depending on which vehicle was chosen at the beginning and which dive site was chosen, this process can vary slightly but is fundamentally the same. Leaving the salvage site, players can either head straight to the coast closest to the Salvage Connoisseur to sell or to the nearest garage to pull a vehicle and then head to the Salvage Connoisseur. It is recommended that players go to the nearest ATM and deposit their freshly earned cash before returning to their water craft to continue selling the rest of the salvage stored in the selected vehicle with the same process. Note: some items gathered at shipwreck sites are not all sellable at the Salvage Connoisseur, refer to the [https://wiki.olympus-entertainment.com/wiki/Virtual_Items virtual items page] to see the prices of these items.
