Zombie Fire Wyvern — Background & Lore

The Zombie Fire Wyvern is an undead Fire Wyvern from the ARK: Fear Evolved Halloween event. It is smaller, faster and more agile than a normal Wyvern and breathes fire. Unlike regular Wyverns, it can be claimed as an adult.

Where to find it

It is an event spawn that appears alongside the Dodo Wyvern on Wyvern maps such as Scorched Earth and Ragnarok, in both ASA and ASE. It is rare and can spawn above the usual wild level cap.

How to get one

Defeat the Dodo Wyvern. Its death makes every wild Zombie Wyvern on that map claimable. It needs no saddle to ride.

Uses

A fast flying fighter with fire breath. Killing one drops a Fire Talon, and it can pass through Tek Dino Gateways, unlike other Wyverns.

Tips

Zombie Wyverns can break thatch, wood and greenhouse structures. Fight them from stone or better.
