LIGHTNING WYVERNS ARE THE BEST 4 STEALING EGGS!!! They can outrun the fire and Poison Wyvern population of the trench and they are immune to lightning breath. Up so noobs can see!
READ THIS IF YOU WANT A WYVERN
To have your own wyvern you need to steal its egg, so there is a few things you need to have to go for a wyvern egg:
1. You need a flying dino that is fast and has decent stamina.
2. Locate the wyverns’ cave in any map you play (Ragnarok, Valguero, Scorched Earth, etc.).
3. Go near the cave and stop to regenerate stamina.
4. Try to see hoy many adult wyverns are flying around the cave. If there are too many you don’t have many chances to successfully steal an egg
5. When you are ready, fly into the cave and take the egg (I recommend to take the first one you see, because if you stay too long inside the cave, wyverns might kill you).
6. FLY AS FAST AS YOU CAN TO GET OUT OF THE CAVE.
7. If you can get out alive, you have made the hardest part, but you have still work to do.
8. When you arrive your base, put down and light around 10 or 15 torches in a circle, and place the egg in the middle.
9. Wait for it to hatch.
10. When the egg hatches, you will have to take care of the wyvern until it grows. You have to do the things that the wyvern asks you to do. The hardest one is to give it wyvern milk. To acquire this you need to knock out an adult wyvern or kill an Alfa. BUT THERE IS A MUCH EASIER WAY. If you have cryopods, try taking your wyvern in the cryopod and then let it out. Sometimes it changes the thing that the baby is asking for.
11. Keep doing the things that your wyvern wants until it grows.
12. Congrats! You have a WYVERN!! :)
To find out when it needs to be feed I set a times for how long it takes the wyvern to lose 1 point in food and times that with how much food it has then divide that by 60 then divide that number by 60 and that’s how many hours you have to feed (more if out of render)
Example: Wyvern has 1234/4699 it take 10 seconds to lose 1 point .
1234 x 10 = 12,340 seconds
12,340 divided by 60 = 205.66 minutes
205.66 divided by 60 = 3.4 hours !
This time also increase because food drain gets slower as it grows and render also plays apart. So this is the safest time to check on the baby !!
Easier way than milk:
My bf and I decided 2 days into the server we were gon yoink an egg with low pteras, so we did, 3 players dead 10 times, 3 pteras dead. But got a 45 egg, so worth it... We werent gon deal with wyverns for a bit so we straight up yoinked a snow owl, lvl 150. Cranked its stamina up to 4k. And every 10 to 20 min u go heal the wyvern after it hatched. You must just be very responsible and not forget abt it. 1k health drains in 30 min so u gon have to be quite active, once it reaches full maturity it can eat normal meat. I wouldnt recommend a deaodon, considering they munch food like crazy and if they run out of 20k food in 2 hours ur wyvern will most likely be toast when u wake up, just keep cryoing the wyvern when u cant check it. Then take it out when u ready to raise it with owl.
I tamed a 150 perfect argy, beefed him up to 20k health and 800% damage, straight up yoinked a level 165 wyvern egg(which i didn’t know existed, thought it went it 150), annihilated all the angry losers, hatched it, forgot I needed milk and it died, don’t be me
Get a lymantria, stone gates, and a sacrifice.
Make some stone gates near the edge of a cavern
Fly in and steal children
Go in a zig zag motion due to them not being able to turn well.
Go under the stone gates and rest there
They will loose interest in you and will attack your sacrifice.
Then scaddadle
I got a level 150 lightning egg and I was so excited to hatch the egg...that when I went to put the egg down I accidentally ate it instead. :( ps4 users: R2 ISN'T GONNA DROP THE EGG YOU'RE GONNA EAT IT LIKE ANY OTHER EGG. REMEMBER THIS. LOGIC BEFORE EXCITMENT.
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,
If you want to imprint your wyvern but don’t have (or want to get) wyvern milk, simply cryopod the wyvern then take it out (this works on any tame). After this its imprinting task will most likely change to something else like take it for a walk, or cuddle with it. Also for people raising a wyvern for the first time, it takes quite a while, and you have to imprint it twice (it gives 50% each time). Also an extra thing, you can’t feed a wyvern meat until it’s fully grown. When it’s growing up you can only feed it wyvern milk. I would have a Daeodon just in case it starves or gets attacked, but I’ve raised a few wyverns and none of their food depleted before they were fully grown, so you can most likely leave it in a safe place and you’ll be fine. I would still have a Daeodon ready to passive heal it just in case though. (One final thing, I believe it takes over 3 hours to grow, and it’s 2 imprinting stages come after around the 1st hour spent, and the 2nd hour spent).
It seems that if the babies food gets low enough the milk gives 2400 food instead of 1200. Make sure you wait to feed your babies!
To fight posion wyverns use a gas mask.
You CAN net projectile a wild wyvren
Fun facts if you want to know more about wyverns!
-There are 4 types: Fire, Lightning, Poison, and Ice.
-Each wyvern has different uses, for example poison wyverns are good for pvp, and lightning wyverns have the highest damage output.
-To tame one you must steal an egg from one and raise it as your own.
-Baby wyverns only eat wyvern milk, which is obtained from kncoking out female wyverns or killing alpha wyverns.
-Wyverns do not spawn on every map. They spawn on maps such as Scorched Earth, Ragnorok, and Fjordur.
That's all!
The highest wyvern egg you can get is 190.get higher level eggs to hatch rather than low levels as high levels have more food and need to eat less often.
To know how much time need to the next feeding just do the next. Look the Food number# then that number multiply x 10, then divide /3600 and the result will be the number of hours until the next time need to be fed. F.E the food number is 1850.5 1859.5x10=18595 /3600 = 5.1 hours
You don't need milk you need a daedeon on healing it heals the wyvern then it's so much easier no knocking out females then when it's grown put meat in it then your done
You can raise a wyverns without any milk. Tame a Daedon to heal the wyvern so it won’t die from hunger, and if you want full imprinting just put it in a cryopod then throw it back out if it asks for milk, that will change what they want
Tame a rock element; an easy tame once trapped in gates, and you’ll be king/queen in the wyvern trench. Even with a low level, you can walk through the lava like a boss, kill all the wyverns, and then have enough eggs to fill a fridge. The only trick to not getting the rider killed is to look down and have its back to the wyvern as it’s flying in close. That way the rock element blocks the fire/lightning ranged attacks. Once the wyvern is in punching distance, it rarely uses its ranged element attacks.
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.
