Talk:Wyvern

Just something I've noticed -- Wyverns (and Harpies) simply spawn above a given height. There's no need for a Floating Island. Can someone else verify this? --125.253.99.68 00:17, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Not a Mini Boss
It's a tough enemy but has no boss characteristics http://www.terrariaonline.com/threads/do-you-consider-the-wyvern-a-miniboss.67124/ Here's a thread were the vast majority are saying it's definitely not a mini boss. --Moxxy 19:04, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Decreasing Spawn Rate
I've killed a handful of these, and died fighting several more, and I didn't notice the spawn rate decreasing with successive appearances. I suggest removing the note as I find the suggestion unlikely. --Theothersteve7 18:56, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Additional Tactic
I've had great luck using a Star Cannon. The most stars I used was 31; the least was 8. (Lucky shots I guess) Mileron 22:25, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

The wyvern's attack pattern is fairly basic. Although it takes longer, before you have the clockwork rifle, the sunfury can be effective. Running one direction, attacking the head and along the body with the sunfury, then jumping over it using the spectre boots (even easier when combined with cloud in a balloon) to hover means that you can essentially take no damage with one repeated maneuver. This can be done with one short platform, only 150 or so blocks long, although a longer one gives more room for error.

Like a Boss
I personally think that the wyverns should drop eggs occasionally but only during blood moons. The eggs could hatch them if you cook them in a furnace and then you could ride them around the world and they should shoot meteor head fireballs if you hold an adamantite bar!

Hey, it's just an idea, you git!

Other References
It's odd, when I first saw the picture it reminded me of the Flying Dog/Wyrm from The Neverending Story.--24.131.174.8 13:04, 26 November 2013 (UTC)

More Bugs
I have no idea, if this has happened to others, but I killed the Wyvyrn, but it didn't drop anything, except coins. No Souls of Flight. So yeah.

Spawn Near Residence?
Can anyone speak to whether the wyvern will spawn near a home that is built in the sky? Do NPCs affect the spawn?
 * Wyverns shouldn't spawn near a town with several NPCs, even in the sky. Wyverns don't pose any particular exception to the spawning rules near NPCs, as far as I'm aware.  Equazcion ( talk ) 09:11, 28 Oct 2014 (UTC)
