Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a crystal wyvern? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a crystal wyvern.
When taming the tropical crystal wyvern, wait till it's landed on the ground, then walk onto it's back, stand between the wings and just feed it from there, that way you don't need a trap, or to wait for it to come back down after feeding it
You can climb on to their backs and you won’t fall off when it starts flying. Then just sit there and spam feed it and you have a free (minus some Crystal) Wyvern!
Bring parachutes just in case though.
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.
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.
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.
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
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)
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
FIRST TIP: if u want to know how to make a trap for crystal wyverns watch captain fatdog on YouTube!
If you are farming out taming crystal wyverns to get on their backs its much easier to mount your current wyvern and walk up to the wild wyvern and dismount yiur wyvern and use its neck as a bridge to get onto the wild wyverns back.
You can tame any level wyvern with regular crystal. The taming effectiveness and percentage drop was a glitch in the files of ark and the devs fixed it. Thank you wild card🙏🙏🙏🙏
For people who think you need to be lvl 65 to tame they are forgetting about the natural spawning eggs(probably want to be higher than lvl 65 for stealing eggs)

A Crystal Wyvern is always close to the same colored crystals (tropical➡️blue, ember➡️orange & blood➡️red)
THERE IS GOING TO BE A CRYSTAL WYVERN
Variants: Base, Tropical, Blood, Ember
THEY ARE A PASSIVE TAME TOO!
Oh and they look so cute on the wiki page
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
Just climb on its back an feed it crystals for five hours. Then put it in the obelisk to put it in the island just to have it go with a crash. My poor level 139 Crystal Wyvern…
Babies eat primals, they also don't eat a lot, from what we've noticed so far.
best way to passive tame is to jump on their back and feed them regular crystals or prime crystals !!
right had bin looking for good baby tips but none being specific enough so i just went ahead and tryed it....this is for ppl who dont have crystal isles.... i aquired(stole) 2 wyvern eggs from a base that was inactive must have left wyvs on to mate.
got a daeodonlvl15 pumped all its lvls into food got it to 20k food. i put 4 troughs down far away from any other dino filled them with cooked meat set the daeodon up for passive heal and got the wyvs out
the low lvl wyv (67) had 500 food witch got it to about 10% mature.... once empty on food its health started to drop but the daedons passive heal keeps it to the top
there is a few seconds were the passive heal isent active but this is fine as the health only drops about 30hp before the heal is re cast
you can also imprint as it wants cuddles and walks so you can reroll if you get prime crystal as an imprint(reroll=pod chuck it back out till cuddles)
i was worried that at 0 food its health would fall while in pod and it doesent :)
Baby crystal wyvern food drains at 1 food every 50 seconds, so multiply the amount of food the baby has left by 50, then divide it by 60 twice to get the amount of hours you can leave it without food, also, 1 primal crystal gives 350 food, so it adds just under 6 hours (which is primal crystals spoil time)
