Zombie Lightning Wyvern — Background & Lore
The Zombie Lightning Wyvern is an undead 
Lightning Wyvern from the ARK: Fear Evolved Halloween event. It fires lightning bolts and is smaller, faster and more agile than a normal 
Wyvern. Unlike regular Wyverns, it can be claimed as an adult.
Where to find it
It is a rare event spawn that appears alongside the 
Dodo Wyvern on Wyvern maps such as Scorched Earth and Ragnarok, in both ASA and ASE. Its level can go above the usual wild cap.
How to get one
Defeat the Dodo Wyvern. Once it falls, any wild Zombie Wyvern on the map can be claimed. No saddle is needed to ride it.
Uses
A fast flyer with a ranged lightning attack. Killing one drops a 
Lightning Talon. It can also pass through Tek Dino Gateways, which normal Wyverns cannot.
Tips
Keep the fight away from weak buildings. Zombie Wyverns can break thatch, wood and greenhouse structures.
