Tips & Strategies
How to tame: wait till it lands then climb on its back. Feed it some tasty crystal (They prefer the sweet, sweet primal type) it will take off don't worry you won't fall. DON'T LOOK DOWN!!! Go into third person. After the first feed wait a thousand years and feed it again (he will start getting hungrier after the second munch) wait till it's tamed, and hop on and ride it. After eating tons of crystal (please don't try eating crystal at home... Seriously) he then wants some fresh raw meat. (Don't eat that either) And that's how you tame. Hope it helped! -wise wise man
If the crystal wyvern's aren't spawning in, kill all the ptera and sarcos,they should then start spawning back in.
They are smaller than normal wyverns so keep that in mind when making a trap because they may escape from traps meant for normal wyverns
If you jump into the water while they are agroed to you they will immediately unagro once submerged
The baby raising timer is off it takes me about 1 hour to 2 for my baby crystal wyverns to grow up so you can just set a timer for an hour-2 hours
if you want to tame a wyvern within the first couple hours of your playthrough I recommend doing easy island note runs, getting to level 65, going to crystal isles with atleast 200 weight to hold the reg crystals, make a metal hatchet, get atleast 110 crystals, hop on the back of a crystal wyvernt then going prone near the head, and just keep feeding it and your done! (for extra help I recommend getting parachutes, just incase you fall)
Well, they rnt hard too tame all u need is crystal and patience as they don’t attack
I've seen people claiming that only super low level wyverns can be tamed without primal crystals, but that simply isn't true.
All you have to do is jump on their back (can be done from the ground), center yourself up where the wings meet the neck, start pumping it full of regular old crystals, and enjoy the ride. I tamed 4 of them that way today, and not once did I get thrown off or have the progress bar start to drop.
This is the best animal on the game
You can drop honey onto a large bear trap to lure in a wyvern and it will make dropping stone gate frames easier to drop over its neck and behind its back. It’s best to drop the honey when the wyvern has landed.
To get Primal Crystals, you must knock out a Crystal Wyvern and harvest Primal Crystals off their back. Once you’ve harvested once, it’ll take about an hour for the Crystal Wyvern to "recharge" and allow you to harvest more.
The number of Primal Crystals that you can harvest from a Crystal Wyvern increases with its level. A level 1 produces 2 Crystals, and it increases by 2 at roughly every 7 or 8 levels.
Lvl 1: 2 Primal Crystals
Lvl 10: 4
Lvl 20: 6
Lvl 30: 8
Lvl 40: 12
Lvl 50: 14
Lvl 100: 28
Lvl 150: 52
Lvl 200: 54
Lvl 300: 80
Lvl 400: 108
The Crystal Wyvern has an extremely high torpor depletion rate — one of the highest in the game — so it will not remain knocked out for long. You might consider trapping it in a cage so that you can harvest it again later.
For everyone saying you can only tame up to level 15 with regular crystal is wrong I just tamed 2 level 45s without primal it took 50 crystal and about 25 mins. I'm on a official server.
Crystal isles is definitely the map for running drops! With one of these guys (preferably tropical because of their hydration when they hit the water which buffs their speed) you can get loads of good blueprints super easy by just flying around the map picking up all of the drops you see! Using this method I easily got loads and loads of amazing blueprints in just 1-2 hours, including a mastercraft crossbow blueprint and an ascendant flak chest blueprint, among loads of good saddle blueprints! Please spread.
Knockout:
1. Build a wyvern trap
2. Agro it and lead it into the trap
3. Knock it out with tracks and go up to it to grab the primal crystal
Taming:
1. Find a good wild wyvern
2. Use a grapple and shoot its neck
3. When you’re hooked on, start feeding it the primal crystal
4. You now know how to tame a 140 crystal wyvern in 10 minutes
FIRST TIP: if u want to know how to make a trap for crystal wyverns watch captain fatdog on YouTube!
There are two variations of Crystal Wyverns:
1) The Crystal Wyvern hier is a highly aggressive variety of Wyvern that spawns in that Wyvern cavern on the Isles, they are untameable but you can get primal crystals from them, they also spawn in the Wyvern Queen fight.
2) The standard Crystal Wyvern can spawn in the sky above areas that match their variety they can be tamed PASSIVELY with crystals and Primal crystals.
