Dodo Wyvern
Ignore
Overview
The Dodo Wyvern is a large flying carnivore that cannot be tamed. It relies on aerial mobility and elemental breath attacks to dominate the skies. Its primary role is as a dangerous wild predator rather than a mount. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Karkinos for fast deployment.
This creature is aggressive and damages structures, making it a threat to bases in flight range.

Drops & Harvest Resources
Killing a Dodo Wyvern yields Hide, Raw Prime Meat, and Sulfur. The Hatchet yields the most Hide, while the Pick maximizes both Raw Prime Meat and Sulfur.
| Resource |  Pick |  Hatchet |
|---|---|---|
| 40%~21~17 hits | 60%~32~13 hits | |
| 60%~24~17 hits | 40%~16~13 hits | |
| 3%~1~17 hits | 2%~1~13 hits |
Estimates based on game-extracted data (weights, quantities, harvest multipliers, damage type chains). Each harvest event independently rolls each resource - higher weight = higher drop chance. Actual yields vary with RNG.
