How do I tame a crystal wyvern? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a crystal wyvern.
Shoot harpoon net at crystal wyverns and knock it out for primal crystals
Shoot it and tame or kill yaybobbydiedikillyounow
It is best to jump on their backs to tame but you need to remember to have Parachute and to be proned. To knock out just know, they can shoot their breath through walls.
When I say these guys are good beginning tames I’m not joking I will do the note run tame a pego get flak armor get a metal pick go to crystal and tame one of these bad boys then go on from then
If you don't know you can trap a wyvern with behemoth stone gates ( Knock it out first/chain bola it and you need at least 2 or 3 gate for it) then make the trap like you would for normal wyverns for their milk. Hope this helps.
Easy way to tame: Grapple on and feed it
Recommend getting a fjordhawk and some polymer. This works for most tames you get this way .The hawks don’t go to arrabiation[idk if I spelled that right- probably not] so if you want to get a rock Drake in the way I’m abt to share, try fjorder. So make sure the polymer (organic) is in one of your slots. Glide down to an egg of your desire (recommend using a spyglass) with your fjordhawk on your shoulder. Make sure it has tons of HP so it doesn’t die. You want to grab the egg and eat the polymer, quickly respawn at your base or wherever you’re storing eggs (if clearing out a trench, Deino nesting grounds, etc etc) The fjordhawk will bring your egg to you since you died with it in your inventory.
A good way to tame the primal shards is to set up a large bear trap with some honey in the middle then when he comes to the trap put a stone dinosaur gateway around its neck and then run around the back of it and place a second gateway as close to the other as possible. Do this quickly as it will break out.
If you are having trouble getting them to follow into a trap, use a different type of wyvern and breathe on them. They'll chase you across the map.
These are kinda an early to midgame/niche tame imo. I've bred several hundred and have my stats about as good as I can get them but they are out performed in boss fights by my boss argies with top saddles and weight bred tropeos blow them away for utility. Which is disappointing because they are a fun dino.
Super easy... Yep... Just bring 50 Crystals (if low level) and bring 110 Crystals (if high level) and wait until its landed and go run super speed and jump on its back. Feed Crystals and continue until its tamed. Primal Crystal: Grab a Grappling Hook with Crossbow then shoot it and knock it out with Darts then Parachute yourself then land. Last thing to do open its inventory then enjoy your 5 Primal Crystals per-wyvern.
Lay prone on its back when taminf in between its shoulder blades to make your life way easier.
When raising a baby crystal wyvern.
Depending on your map settings, your baby might not even need to be fed! It also depends on your baby's lvl anything around 200 or up should not need to be fed more then once if at all.
It's better to feed it when it's almost starving 100-200 food.
Also stay calm! Over reacting is a no no, being a "Helicopter Parent" from my experience it usually gets the baby wyvern killed. It's better to lean on the "survival of the fittest" even if it's a little cold.
If you are hatching make a 3x3 box out of air cons
The baby has enough food to last it through the first 2 imprints so thats about 16 hours you have until you you have to start feeding it primal crystal.
Fun fact males do give the primal Crystal's. Another fun fact if you us the gate method of trapping them, I suggest you jump on their backs wait for them to land and then place the gates to prevent them from flying away. I did both these things in single player and it worked both times.
Idk if this still works it worked for me and my friend anyways: when taming you can actually get on it's back when flying and just keep feeding and bang you have a wyvern
Water: for noobs
Blood: for the PvP freaks
Ember: for all your toasting marshmallow needs
Get a army of vultures which spawn right by the cavern and wage war to distract them while you steal a egg.
Be careful when knocking them out in taming pens because every time I do it they just stay aggressive and attack the structure, I’ve tried leading them really far away but they just keep flying back, not sure if I’m doing something wrong or it’s just the game, but definitely a problem lol.
