Tips & Strategies

I can only speak for PS4 but if you're playing on a single player world (specifically Ragnarok in my case) and you have the bug where wyverns aren't spawning or the nests aren't spawning, use " admincheat destroywilddinos " and wait about 1 in game day, maybe 2, then check they wyverns to see if they spawned and if the nests spawned, worked for me.
PS. If you play single player, you should probably just host a non dedicated server and put a lock on it. In my experience I've never really had problems like they wyverns not spawning or their nests not spawning.
Hope this helped, it could work for Xbox too, idk if PC has the same problem but if you're experiencing this glitch then try this out. up this so it can hopefully help people with this glitch!
More Wyvern Encountering Tips
Poetic wyvern information:
The wyvern is a lizard of the air,
To tame it's fury,
You must enter their burning lair,
It has three kinds: one's stormy one's toxic and one's fiery,
To enrage them is a deadly thought,
But if successful will not amount to nought,
If you find the glowing stone,
From Inside will come flesh and bone,
And lightning, venom, or fire,
But do not sink into the burning mire,
To get this treasure,
It does not bring pleasure,
It enjoys a nest of burning flame,
And milk of the beast from which it came,
But if you manage the impossible feat,
The wyverns's fury is now yours to tame,
If you hatch wings of thunder,
Your aim may often blunder,
But with its power,
It could topple the highest tower,
If you hatch wings of acid,
Your shot may miss,
But after that the air is no longer placid,
If you hatch wings of fire,
Your range is weak,
But your power is dire,
To fight posion wyverns use a gas mask.
Don’t go to murder snow, I just went and there was 12 ice wyverns from what I could count before I died. Btw Could I kill them with max level fire fully imprinted and a prim saddle giga?
Do not fly in a straight line when escaping as they have a horrible turning radius. Try getting them stuck behind things in the environment.
Rip people trying to steal an egg after the flyer nerf ;-)
When you search for eggs try to always take another person and eat cactus broth to help you be noticed less. Dont forget to give your bird cactus broth also. Very important
For the new players:
Ice wyverns freeze you which slows you down but it is the weakest wyvern
Fire wyvern does burn damage over time with breath attack
Poison wyverns can be very dangerous as their breath attack ignores armor
Lightning wyverns are the strongest wyvern in the game, however their breath attack costumes a lot of stamina
Tropical crystal wyverns aren’t the best for mele but they get a boost when touching water
Blood crystal wyverns heal themselves when they hit tigers with their breath attack
Ember crystal wyverns are similar to fire wyverns with the same breath attack
-Hope this helps!
Heres some INFO as we call it..
There are more than one type of wyvern, they are fire, poison, lightning, and soon to be a Crystal Wyvern with the Crystal Isles free DLC coming, they are going to be a passive tame. The types of Crystal Wyverns are base, tropical, blood, and ember.
The wyverns spawn in wyvern dens, and can be found in the Highlands for Ragnarok and the Snow Desert in Valguero (I only do free DLCs).
You tame wuverns by going into the wyvern dens and finding nests with eggs in them. Once you have an egg, they need 10-15 standing torches, 4-5 fireplaces, or 20 (atleast) campfires. Until they are adults, they need Wyvern Milk to survive. That is all they eat until then.
Wyvern milk can be obtained by knocking out a female wyvern and collecting milk from there. Alpha wyverns drop more than normal wyverns.
Wyverns pick up larger dinos than other flyers.
Wyverns can breathe fire for fire wyvern, lightning for lighting wyvern, and poison balls for poison wyvern.

So I lost seven birds.. I was not prepared.. props to top comment
Lead wyverns out of trenches on mobile there is an over spawn on rag, so many spawn that nests can be filled and some wyverns don’t get to lay eggs. I like to lead them to a diplo or a bronto, but in reality you can lead them to rhinos and mammoths, I have noticed that rhinos entertain wyverns the most as they have literally had an entire 1 minute showdown with a max level lightning wyvern. Most creatures die with in the first few seconds to the wyvern, which is why I say go for rhinos, there is also the option of going to a cave next to the trench bridge. The bridge is a natural one and the cave is only accessible through a climbing creature or a medium to small flier. I can’t guarantee a wyvern won’t fit in there, but the entrance does seem a bit too small. This cave is large with no artifact, it has metal and salt, as well as obsidian and two entrances. The second entrance is quite close to the ground and it usually a wyvern sits outside, the cave is spacious so if the entrance isn’t enough to get the wyvern stuck you can build a gate trap.
