Overview
The Forest Wyvern is a large flying carnivore and a variant of the standard Wyvern species. It excels in combat with high resistance to fire-based attacks and significant weaknesses to spike walls and explosive damage. Its primary utility lies in its ability to withstand flame-based weaponry while dealing heavy damage to structures and other flyers. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Argentavis for rapid deployment across vast distances.
