After a successful mate, the Ember Crystal Wyvern lays a fertilized egg.Incubation temperature must stay between 75°C and 85°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range.At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 4 hours and 59 minutes.

After hatching or birth, the baby Ember Crystal Wyvern matures at a glacially slow pace - plan for a multi-day commitment, reaching adulthood in about 3 days and 20 hours at 1x maturation.Hand-feeding is required until 10% maturation.After that, a Feeding Trough handles the rest.

Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors.Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines.Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.

The Ember Crystal Wyvern's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~556 min and requires constant hand-feeding.Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~37h - it can eat from a Trough now.Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~46h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Ember Crystal Wyvern gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted.Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.

Planning a mass raise?The Ember Crystal Wyvern raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste.Expect ~556 minutes of active care during the Baby phase before it graduates to trough-feeding as a Juvenile.

Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Ember Crystal Wyvern babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations.Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.

ARK: Survival Ascended features the Ember Crystal Wyvern as a tamable, flying, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild.

With 1,295 base Health, the Ember Crystal Wyvern is extremely durable.Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it solid damage output.Stamina sits at 325 base, providing average stamina.A base Weight of 300 means a solid weight pool.

This is a passive tame: no tranquilizers needed.Get close without startling it, then offer food from your last hotbar slot.

As a tame, the Ember Crystal Wyvern works well as a reconnaissance mount, offering fast travel and a bird's-eye view of the terrain.Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 75°C–85°C temperature window.Defeating one in the wild grants 15 base XP.It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.85 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
