Tips & Strategies
There’s a lot of things wyverns are useful for, each wyvern can have its own use so in the tip I’m gonna attempt to explain most the uses wyverns have in 5 categories, all wyverns and then the 4 wyvern types.
Please note I’ve play 5 minutes total of pvp so this guide is more focused on pve
All wyverns
- carrying, every wyvern can carry small - medium sized creatures, making them not bad transport tames for medium sized creatures, they can hold up to an Allo in size
- damage, im going to get into this more with the individual wyvern types but every wyvern generally does pretty good bite damage
- travel mounts, wyverns are fast fliers, awful turn radius but they fly fast and are good for traveling across the map and on maps like scorched earth they’re your best bet for traveling across the map.
- metal running, argys are better at this but wyverns can be faster, they don’t have high weight but it’s decent and you can level up weight to get a pretty good metal running creature.
- kibble, wyvern eggs give kibble meaning you can start a breeding line or you can raid an entire trench, either way you’ll have eggs for extraordinary kibble
- meat running, wyverns are fast, high damaging, mid game creatures, meaning they’re good for meat runs, you can pile up a lot of meat by going on a murder spree with a wyvern
-thatch collecting, a wyverns wing flap ability is good at knock back and collecting thatch from trees, and a little wood, you can get a lot of charcoal from certain trees as well.
That’s the general use for wyverns in pve at least, now the next 4 categories are going to be a lot shorter because wyverns aren’t very different except for different elemental breath and a slightly different model
Fire wyverns
- fire breathing, you can set stuff on fire with this wyvern which does a lot of damage and even more percent based damage, I don’t have much else to say
Poison wyverns
-ranged attacking, poison wyverns shoot a toxic ball that does high dps and damages the player on a mount in pvp, the ranged attack is useful for killing from a range and avoiding taking damage
Lightning wyverns
-highly deadly lightning breath, the lighting wyverns breath has the highest damage of any wyvern, it’s typically the best wyvern for combat because of the damage it’s breath inflicts.
Ice wyverns
- slowdown effect, ice wyverns are considered to be the weak link of the 4 wyverns, they’re still good, after all it is still a 2 legged dragon, the ice breath does low damage but has a slowdown effect, which is nice to get out of a pinch.
And that’s the use for wyverns, I think I got everything for pve but there’s probably more I missed, that’s all from me
More Wyvern Utility Tips
Easier way than milk:
My bf and I decided 2 days into the server we were gon yoink an egg with low pteras, so we did, 3 players dead 10 times, 3 pteras dead. But got a 45 egg, so worth it... We werent gon deal with wyverns for a bit so we straight up yoinked a snow owl, lvl 150. Cranked its stamina up to 4k. And every 10 to 20 min u go heal the wyvern after it hatched. You must just be very responsible and not forget abt it. 1k health drains in 30 min so u gon have to be quite active, once it reaches full maturity it can eat normal meat. I wouldnt recommend a deaodon, considering they munch food like crazy and if they run out of 20k food in 2 hours ur wyvern will most likely be toast when u wake up, just keep cryoing the wyvern when u cant check it. Then take it out when u ready to raise it with owl.
Did you know?
A normal level 150 wyvern has 693 stamina and 516 weight and about 4000 food, while the level 150 crystal wyvern has 715 stamina, about 400 weight and about 3000 food. And the crystal wyvern can carry alot bigger dinos and a bigger diversity of dinos.
Thanks for using dododex and playing Ark.

Fun facts if you want to know more about wyverns!
-There are 4 types: Fire, Lightning, Poison, and Ice.
-Each wyvern has different uses, for example poison wyverns are good for pvp, and lightning wyverns have the highest damage output.
-To tame one you must steal an egg from one and raise it as your own.
-Baby wyverns only eat wyvern milk, which is obtained from kncoking out female wyverns or killing alpha wyverns.
-Wyverns do not spawn on every map. They spawn on maps such as Scorched Earth, Ragnorok, and Fjordur.
That's all!
To know how much time need to the next feeding just do the next. Look the Food number# then that number multiply x 10, then divide /3600 and the result will be the number of hours until the next time need to be fed. F.E the food number is 1850.5 1859.5x10=18595 /3600 = 5.1 hours
There wasnt enough space in names for this😅 enjoy!
