Lightning Wyvern — Detailed Guide

The Lightning Wyvern is a fast, deadly flyer that breathes a continuous beam of electricity. Like all wyverns, it cannot be tamed from the wild: you raise one from a stolen egg.

Where to find it

Wyvern trenches on Scorched Earth and Ragnarok in both games, Astraeos in ASA, and Fjordur and Lost Island in ASE.

Getting one

Steal a Lightning Wyvern egg from a nest in the trench and escape the adults. Hatch it in a very hot place, 80 to 90 °C in our ASA data, and feed the baby Wyvern Milk until it can eat meat.

Uses

Fast flight and strong damage from range.

Tips

Bring a fast flyer and a plan to escape before you take an egg: every adult in the area will chase you.
