Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a crystal wyvern? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a crystal wyvern.
If you want primal crystal without building a trap use a decently leveled Griffin n target a low level tropical
ATTENTION !!!!! you can only passive tame a Tropical Wyvern when you reach level 65,its useless trying to get the material before that,because primal crystal spoils quickly
Looking to tame a dragon? Great idea! In this tip I will state what I recommend bringing, however it’s entirely up to you what you plan on bringing! I will start with the supplies to consider bringing!; So there’s to ways of taming this dragon I will first state the passive tamable ones! First to tame one of these, they will only eat crystals! Luckily crystals are always at the ready on the map, (assuming you are on crystal isles where they exclusively spawn) They will eat normal crystals, but they prefer primal crystals! That’s basicaly all the supplies you need (I recommend bringing parachutes as well!) now the tamping supplies for the wyvern heirs! These I do not thing are tamable! The only way to tame them is to first steal one of they’re eggs (found exclusively in the desert) If you plan on doing this, I suggest bringing good armor a flying tame (for quick and easy access to a easy egg), make sure your tame is fast, as you have to outrun them to escape! The crystal wyvern heirs also give you access to primal crystals, however the only way to get these is to knock them unconscious and click on them to gather a random amount of primal crystals 50 or lower! The higher the level, and the type of wyvern (the best is ember and blood wyverns) Gives you more crystals, you cannot continue knocking the same wyvern out, because it needs to regenerate crystals (takes around an hour) if you plan on getting primal crystals this is a good option!
If alphas aren’t arround! Now the spawn areas for these guys! :D The passive tamable wyverns spawn up north east, this is where I find them most commonly! The type of wyvern varies! The 2 types of wyverns I found that were passive tamable (not heirs) are the tropical (the most common one) and the blood wyvern (I find these to be quite rare) the heir wyvern nest spawns nestled in the bottom left corner of the map, you should see a desert mountain with strange pillars randomly arround it, the nests spawn on top of the mountain randomly, as well as on top of the pillars! Here is where you will have access to the following eggs; Blood wyvern eggs(uncommon) ember wyvern eggs(very common to find) however I do not think tropical wyvern eggs spawn in the wyvern nest! Now the fun part; If your planning taming the non aggressive wyvern it’s very simple! Step one wait for it to land, this is a very simple task as it lands very often, but not for very long! Next; eithor feed it the crystal and wait for it to become hungry again, or find a way to jump on the back of the wyvern, then feed it the crystal so your practically riding it while it’s taming! Eventually you will have tamed yourself a dragon! I’ll tell you what they’re great for eventually! If you are considering stealing an egg, it’s relatively simple grab you flying tame and look around all the nooks and crannies, pillars, and you will find a egg! Nests look like a regular bird nest except enhance its size by a lot! Wyvern eggs look diffrent compared to a diffrent species of wyvern; the ember wyvern egg is orange on the top, and a pale greenish yellow on the bottom half! The blood wyvern egg, has crimson on the top, and black on the bottom half! The tropical wyvern egg, is actually pretty simple it’s actually two diffrent colors of blue but we will just say it is blue! When hatching these guys do take note they will ONLY eat primal crystal or they will starve, if they get imprinted, they will consume more food to regain health they lost, so when you don’t have very much primal crystal, I recommend to consider taming a daeodon! Once it’s finnaly an adult you now have a crystal wyvern! Now it’s time to tell you what they are good for! :D since there are 3 variety’s of wyvern that I know of, they each have usefull attacks, anyways I will start with the good old tropical wyvern! This wyvern is a very common passive tame, as they are a very good beginners flying tame! They have a breath attack witch proves more affective when in water! It wears of similarly to the spinos! This breath attack does low damage but at a high rate of hits! Also as with every wyvern (that I know of has a knock back ability, this consumes stamina, but it will like the diplo push whatever is in front of it away at the cost of stamina! It’s bite attack is also powerful for a flying tame! All of the crystal wyverns are reasonably faster than any other map’s wyvern! Next is the blood wyvern! ; this has a special breath attack that steals health from any creatures that the attack hits, this will drain a lot of stamina, but will restore half of what was drained from the creature, to your wyvern! Making it a decent battle mount, this breath attack also makes a good use for pvp by easily locating enemy players by draining they’re health and dispatching them quickly! This probably won it be a begginers first wyvern as the passive tamable ones are difficult to find! Finnaly the Ember crystal wyvern!; these will do the most dmg! Happy taming and take care! :D
If you are planning to re knock a trapped wyvern for its crystals, they regrow around 45min to 1 hour, i waited an hour and they were back. On offical.
When it lands jump on its back and you cant fall off even when it flies straight down you can stay there and tame it easy
When raising a baby with primal crystal, you have to wait till they are able to carry the weight of at least one primal crystal before you can put it in their inventory.
Dont steal the eggs there a passive tame if u can find them
Tropics are near blue cristals
Bloods are close to red crystals
I dont lnow were the other on is
easy to tame. they live at the green part of the map. It's pretty hard to get up their wing though. But if u have a wyvern tamed u can just walk it to the side of the other wyvern then walk to the other ones back
Hope this helped
So you can spawn the three variants
Tropical:gmsummon “crystalwyvern_character_bp_ws_c” *whatever level*
Blood: gmsummon “crystalwyvern_character_bp_blood_c” *whatever level
And for last just do bp_ember_ c
I have no idea if this will work on Xbox or pc.
Wait for them to land before you go in to tame them
Unable to Incubate Wyvern Egg.
In PC I think putting the egg near fire doesn't work( at least for me ) the hatches automatically after is laid we don't need to do anything ( for other dinos ) but for Wyvern it is not happening. Tried putting an egg near fire it doesn't work.
Even health and Incubation are un-affected
Please give some advice.
New way of getting primal crystal
Get them to aggro on you and make sure their head is in the middle of the Dino gate. Get a snow owl or mana (easier to tame on gen 2, good luck on lost island if you don’t have the DLCs). Freeze them and quickly go around the back and put another gate.
Wanna be more risky?
Try using the stegosaurus’ impale ability, if it works on the wyvern, it should land and walk to you.
If done right, you can trap one of these with 2 regular dino gates. Put one right in front and one right behind the wings, with the opening over the body
No one’s wrote this down yet, but if you use a grappling hook with a crossbow on the crystal wyverns it doesn’t hurt them, and you can’t fall off. Although you do have a chance to take fall damage when you hit their wings so use this at your own risk.
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
Don’t need milk or crystal when their health gets low heal with owl
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.
