Tips & Strategies
Here’s how I tame my Tropical Wyverns:
1: Get crystal, I recommend a stack, just in case.
2: find your desired wyvern.
3: get on the back of said wyvern, this May take a few tries and I recommend wearing ghillie as you do.
4: start feeding from on the back of the wyvern, try not to fall off or get pushed off.
5: bam! There’s your wyvern! You’re welcome :)

So is there a level cap to these or something?
Ember Wyvern can fit through a 'narrower' space than regular wyverns. I'm flying one through a hole in my base wall that is 2 wide and 6 tall
TRANFERRING IS POSSIBLE! I uploaded all 3 of my passive tamed crystal wyverns into the obelisk & transferred them to Ragnarok & The Island w no issue whatsoever. I didn’t try cryopod transfer, as doing that makes me nervous & I don’t like to risk it. But transferring through the obelisk works.
Wyvern Rodeo is best way to tame
CRYSTAL ISLES: Bring extra crystal just in case it glitches and you need to restart taming it. To get on it’s back land next to it on a flyer and whistle it to follow then jump up the wing and lay down in between the shoulders. That way when it flies straight up or down you will be good to go.=)
Ill just sum it all up.
So for starters you need to be lvl 65 to passive tame them. I recommend 4 stone gateways for extra safety but 2 will do just fine. Simply place one in front and one behind it. If you want primal crystal and tame the one youre taking from, simply after taking primal crystals let him kill you and eat your body so that it will de aggro. Destroy the gateway traps if you were using them so it can reach your body. After that follow it, jump on its back, lay down and voila you got yourself a perfect tame. You might take some time to look around as there are usually some already placed traps with wyverns traped so you have some easy crystal.
Laying down is almost a 100% succes, unless like it happened to me, it decides to dive bomb straight into water. Keep some parachutes just in case.
As for raising baby's, piece of cake. My 215's came out with over 1400 food so they last over a full day with that. 2-3 times feeding with 2-3 primal's and youre set.
You can climb it’s wing crouch on its neck and feed it make sure you don’t move until it’s tamed or you might fall off.
Some crystal wyverns are passive tame with crystal, However, beware the heirs by the tench protecting their eggs.
Tricky but effective taming method
Build three stone dinosaur gates (only need two but three to be safe)
Find one that's on the ground and place a gate in its path, quickly try to place a second gate as close as possible behind its shoulders. If you position correctly when it tries to fly away it will be stuck between the two gates.
Nearby, but not too close, build a foundation, bed and chest
Now tranq the wyvern to knock it out, keep distance so it doesn't hit you with breath attack
Once knocked out harvest its prime crystals
Pop everything in your chest
Let it wake up, it'll be aggro, let it kill you
Respawn at the bed and it shouldn't be aggro anymore (if it is respawn outside of render and fast travel to the bed), grab your stuff out the chest and feed it its own prime crystals
Success 👌
If you have enough primal crystals, you can tame the one you knocked out and took them from. It will
aggro when it wakes up, but as soon and you leave render distance you can come back and it'll be docile again. Or you can just please a sleeping bag nearby and let it kill you when it wakes up.
If you are able to get a egg and fly off but they catch u and u die u can go back and get the egg from ur invitory
No one has mentioned this but for a safe way to tame just grapple to the neck (safest spot) then just feed it primal crystal
Jump on back, lay on neck and don't move, keep feeding crystals, easiest tame, but can only be unlocked at lvl68
If you can hop on its back
It makes it go much faster
They can't carry as many creatures as the original wyverns can, but that's really the only significant difference, and they're perfect for stealing wyvern eggs. A high level one will take less damage than a griffin, fly faster than a snow owl, and have more stamina than a pteranodon. I also use mine to kill alpha raptors and carnos for loot and xp.
Never done it before but you can grapple on it using a cross bow and feed it while it is flying. Al long as you done hit it and the line doesn't snap you will be good
