Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a wyvern? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a wyvern.
Get an ice wyvern first now that Rag ASA is out. Use it as a fridge for the milk. Lasts days not hours. Also bison, you’re going to need at least 2, one adult female and one baby. Female bison only produce milk once every hour with a baby nearby. Uncryo baby, grab the milk, cry the baby. The timer will go down without the baby present. Get about 4 milk before your Wyverns needs to eat, wyvern will never need more than 2 every 4 hours till adult.
EZ eggs on ragnarok,
The main wyvern trench is to the north east of the map however there is a much less known location towards the south west to the left of the desert biome
The things you will need are,
A flier (lymantria,pteranodon , expendable flier in general)
An icthy (will explain further on)
A Lazarus chowder
A sleeping bag
Food so you don’t knockout
Water so you don’t knockout
Cryopod (optional)
The key advantage of this cave is that there is water all through the bottom of the wyvern cave, wyvern can’t swim and do not attack you when below the waters surface. However the eggs themselves are elevated and cannot be grabbed from the water. This just means the water is our escape route.
Start by placing a sleeping bag on a shore near the wyvern cave, however not too close that the wyverns may come near it, leave your flyer here and all your stuff we will use it later, then take your icthy and swim in to the wyvern cave, leave it comfortably under the water surface and hop off it, then drown and respawn at the sleeping bag
Then take your stuff out your flyer, have your cryopod and Lazarus chowder in your hot bar and prepare to fly in. The hard part about this cave is not getting in but getting out as the entrance is a small choke point which is murder (unless you swim) the hardest part about this method is about to come up but it’s still much easier than the normal method, fly into the cave and evade agro.
If you do get agro’d then your flyer will not survive as there will no time to cryopod it before you escape
Once your in and you’ve evaded agro cryopod your flier THEN TAKE THE EGG not take the egg and cryopod as you will have no more time to cryopod before the wyverns arrive
Once your flyer is in the cryopod, eat the Lazarus chowder, grab the egg and jump in and swim to your icthy, normally the wyverns would destroy you however they can’t attack you when below the waters surface. Get on the icthy and swim out the cave
Now the only time the wyverns can attack you is when you resurface for oxygen however we beat this by using the Lazarus chowder or even an oxygen tank and scuba mask if your willing to risk the resources. Once you’ve got your Lazarus chowder applied and your on your icthy things are smooth sailing from here, just swim out and don’t resurface, until out of range of the wyverns, this method is so good sometimes I don’t get any wyverns following me at all.
Alternatively instead of a flyer you could use a crossbow and grappling hook, just swim in on the icthy and grapple up to the nest grab the egg and jump back down again
Enjoy your new wyvern, repeat this if it’s a bad level
Use a griffin and aggro all wyverns in the trench, then fly straight up until u reach the barrier of the map (make sure wyverns are still aggroed on you). Then fly straight down to the trench (they cannot catch up on you because griffins are fast when flying straight down) and have fun collecting all the wyvern eggs :)
Pro tip try using a maewing for your rock drakes and wyverns for less baby death
Add an extra set of pillars near the gate one ceiling in so when the wyvren turns around to escape it gets stuck on the pillars. It has made trapping so much easier. Good Luck
Imprinted Snow Owls are amazing for stealing eggs. They get a 20% speed boost once imprinted. That along with the glide makes them faster than Wyverns.
If you get their stats high enough you can kill Wyverns with them as well even an alpha wyvern if you keep it chasing you with their wide turning radius avoiding most of the damage.
The freeze heal is nice after you have been hit with poison breathe quickly gain your health back. Just bring some food for your hunger.
Famous Last Words, ~"I can club it"~ "Oh God, Noooooooo!!!!...... ... .
Bring shocking tranquillisers and your least favourite flyer.
Lengthy read, but this will dramatically help out all survivors just starting out with the ultimate goal getting a wyvern. This will make your experience much easier in many ways...
1) Locate a decent leveled Ptera, bola it for easy taming, and pump all points into stamina. (this is strictly to help mobility across the maps)
2) Upload ptera (and don't forget to take the saddle off), travel to Crystal Isles, find a drop or Ob, and download your ptera again, and travel to the desert. There's a "griffin scar" that's hard to miss.
3) Build a griffin trap made of 5-6 stone dino gates with doors on both sides and open the one closest to the griffin trench. Find a good level, get it's attention, and kite it into the trap. This is honestly the hardest step as they can hit like a truck early game and their turn radius is quite wide. Once trapped and knocked out, find an ovis south or southeast of the trench and wait for the starve timer to drop down. Slaughter the ovis and tame the griffin. Congratulations, your ptera is now obsolete. Practice dive bombing and level up stamina to at least 1500.
4) I suggest Ragnarok to start egg diving. Initially, dive into the wyvern trench with the sole purpose of gaining aggro from as many wyverns in one swoop as you can then fly up to the ceiling with wyverns in pursuit. As the wyverns finally catch up with you, dive past them back to the ground. If done fast enough, the aggroed wyverns will de-render and disappear, leaving the nests you dived past unguarded. Grab an egg, and repeat until you find one you want. Eat eggs you don't want. Don't ignore them or drop them. That's like leaving wood in beaver dams. Don't be that guy please.
5) Use standing torches or A/C units to incubate and hatch.
6) To get milk for feeding and imprints, you need to find a female wyvern. Ideally a fire cause their range sucks with their breath attack. The lower level the better. Make a trap to kite them in using a stone behemoth gates in the exact same style as your griffin trap. Knock them out with a longneck with tranq darts or crossbow with tranq arrows. Once they are knocked out grab the milk in their inventory and get back to your baby as soon as possible. Preserving salts in your inventory will double the short spoil timer but you still need to hurry just in case. Store excess milk and preserving salts in a preserving bin. Practice this process as it's always better to have more milk than not enough.
7) Raise to maturity. You can use cryo pods to avoid leaving them unattended when you're not around. Pro tip: If you cryo your baby when it wants milk and you don't have any, release them again and their desired imprint may change.
Lengthy as I said, but follow this to the letter and you'll be get baby wyverns potentially within a day or two. Happy hunting survivors.

It’s easy to get an egg just find a wyvern den look around and you’ll see an egg (you might wanna look up what they look like) grab it quick then run they always weigh 50 so make sure you have room they last for about 10 real days but that might be different on official during those days you have to knock out female wyverns and get milk from their inventory when the are knocked out (they wake up in like a minute so try to do 1 wyvern at a time) the baby’s only eat wyvern milk until they are an adult some may say you could not get the milk and use the heal pigs but that takes a lot more work because you need an insane amount of food and it doesn’t work on official
While raising if it wants wyvern milk put it in a cryopod and wait 5 mins and throw it back out the want should change
Important note: if you have singleplayer settings enabled you DON'T need wyvern milk.
Put in crypto’s then take out to refresh what wyvern needs if it wants milk
With 500% melee, a Wyvern is essentially a flying Giga that can also easily replace your Argents and Brontos. Wyverns are hands down the best meat farmers for massive carnivore raises, gather crazy amounts of thatch, and travel faster than a 200% speed argent even at the Wyvern's slowest speed.
Good tip, bison milk will substitute wyvern milk PLUS if the imprint wants bison milk it will boost the maturation by 10%. VERY helpful when raising during down times on boosted events.
If you want to tame a wyvern on valgero you don’t need wyvern milk if on ASA it worked for me but might not work for you if you want to gamble
Just buy the rag dlc and tame it there, I don’t care how much you like scorched earth on rag there are better levels and more kinds of wyverns. I recommend getting a ice wyvern first as they are the easiest wyvern to get. That is because they are the weakest, not only that but they also have spawns that can be out of the trench or far away from the trench from what I last remember. You can use an ice wyvern to get higher levels and get other wyverns.
If you are noob or scared just put 4 turret with 500 adv ammow each and go with your fastest Mount
If you go to fjordur tame a hawk put it on your shoulder and nab the egg eat polymer and youl have a wyvern I got this from syntac credit to him go sub now to him good luck and have fun
