Lurtz Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 So lately my tribe seems to have an awful time keeping things alive and maintaining resources I was wondering If I built a metal room with fireplaces in it (not campfires) how many would I need to successfully hatch a wyvern egg, how big could the box be and could my tribemates raise their own wyverns on meat instead of milk? I understand imprinting as babies is milk but if we didn't care for imprints much could we still get away with meat and fires instead of milks and AC's? Can a wyvern egg ever become "too hot" ?

Cowgirl Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I think if you use like between 15 and 20 standing torches it will work to incubate them. However they will not eat meat before they are an adult, only milk. It is (or at least was) possible to raise a high lvl one with a lot of devotion without feeding it at all but you have to have someone online 24/7 and you need a healing pig to get its HP up. I do not know if that is still possible though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerbilRex Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 ACs. Make a room w/ 8 and everything in the game can hatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeraleigh Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 You can still just use the Daeodon in lieu of milk. I just finished one, albeit on an unofficial. It just takes A LOT of meat for the Daeodon and constant attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthaNyan Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Instead of (or in addition to) campfires and torches you can just toss some high melee otters and put the egg between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitoaK Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 You do not want to raise a wyvern without milk. You will need multiple pigs and 5 days without sleep. I did this and it ruined my opinion of ark. You will not want to play the game anymore after this. And then when a giga kills that same wyvern you then break your monitor in return...

daniel646 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 i find Wyverns easy to raise gigas on the other hand are just impossible for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadnaught Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Wyverns have been in the game over a year and people are still trying to short cut the raising process? Its an end game tame, not worth your time raising it in any way unless you do it correctly and get all the imprints unless you are planing to sell it. Just my 2 cents.

Sw1perNOsw1ping Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Imprints can make or break a wyvern, just have to trap one female keep someone in render range and retrank when ya need milk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayin Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 It's really not that hard to trap one and tranq it out, especially if you have a gas mask and find a low level poison female. You can basically punch those out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sw1perNOsw1ping Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 YouTube wyverns traps, there's one you can build that the wyverns will fly into and can't fly out, so no need to die trying to close the door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyverns are one of the easiest raises (rock drake is easiest hands down). You would be much better off building a decent trap and just milking females when needed... so little work required, much easier / less time consuming than daedon heal raising. If you dont have access to milk on your server go to a rag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck386 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Imprints can make or break a wyvern, just have to trap one female keep someone in render range and retrank when ya need milk That doesnt work can only milk a female once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, @GerbilRex you're very wrong. 8 ACs aren't near enough for wyvern or drake eggs. ACs basically provide insulation from temperatures for a certain amount for a 2 foundation radius. In my aberration base in the biolume which constantly stays 68 degrees (one of the cooler places on the map), it takes exactly 20 ACs to not be "too hot" for drake eggs. Some people in the upper mushroom forest have reported needing up to 32 ACs to hatch drakes. It's purely dependant on the ambient temperature and the egg in question.

Some people in the upper mushroom forest have reported needing up to 32 ACs to hatch drakes. It's purely dependant on the ambient temperature and the egg in question. I second this. For scorched earth, the -generally- accepted number of ACs to hatch an egg is at least 12. Some say 14. Some say don't even try without 20. About the wyvern, you'll wanna go ahead and do the imprints. Since the 8-hour change to imprints, wyverns are one of the creatures they didn't screw up with the new-NEW ratios of imprint to maturation. Getting 100% is not only possible, it is basically your saddle. I'm always amazed with how many wyverns are bought and sold considering this... You find out just how squishy they are when the heat is on you and you aren't imprinted. Plus the people selling usually do group raises and end up with crappy imprints (<70%) so the buyer doesn't even get the full stat bonus. My views of dino-salesman aside, do what you need for an imprinted wyvern. You will not forget it, and with a >90% imprint you will never see these flying juggernauts the same.

SwishPapaSweets Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Problem is that only the original imprinter gets the rider boost otherwise you just get the stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skiidzman Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I have never seen it cost more than 18 AC's, period. Put 6 down on a wall, put 6 in front of those 6, put two ceilings on the wall above them, put 6 in the back, and IF (doubtful) you need more put 6 in the front. boom.

mecandbuttons Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 We are on SE and use a room with fireplaces. We normally can turn on 2-3 to hatch an egg depending on the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArianaGaming Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Hello, I raised one in murder snow on Ragnarok. 50 standing torches no AC. Now this was long ago but fun times. Regards, Ariana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, in the biolume (A constant 68 deg where my base is) it takes 20 ACs to hatch drake eggs. This is the coldest area of the map except the surface at night. Rock drake eggs like it cold. With 19 ACs (Yes... I tried it with 19) I got "Too Hot". With 20, it was perfect. In hotter areas, it takes more. If you're up in the mushroom forest, you could need up to 32 ACs to hatch rock drake eggs. This isn't an exaggeration. I've see someone actually get the too hot message on these eggs myself with 31 ACs packed in a tiny area (1.5x1.5 foundations wide, Egg right on top of all of them.)

Sphere Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Problem raising Wyverns? Why? It's easy on Ragnarok.... if the server tame cap isn't maxed that is. 20 standing torches is a good method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyverns want the hottest temperatures of all eggs. On scorched earth, the hottest map by far, it's recommended a minimum of 14 ACs for day hatching. Night times are cold, so you need even more than that if you're hatching at night. Admittedly, if you took a rock drake egg to Ragnarok, you could hatch it probably in the murder murder snow, but do we even need to humor that?

My base is over a volcano and yes, my other one is in murder snow. I hatch them in those two areas, so that might explain it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
