Their most notable feature is a pair of fan-like appendages wreathed in glowing blue tentacles, which project shields that extend to either side. They also fight with a unique weapon, the [[Warp Lance]], which fires [[Void]] projectiles that are similar to those fired by Cyclopes, but split into five smaller projectiles in a cross-shaped pattern after a short amount of time, making it a shotgun-like weapon. The Wyvern has two Warp Lances mounted on its body. It should also be noted that, unlike most Vex units, which have a single glowing red "eye"(possible exception of the Harpy), the Wyvern has six "eyes". | ||
Wyverns appear to be a cross between a [[Minotaur]] and a [[Harpy]]. They have two forms, their normal bipedal one, used while walking and fighting at a distance, and their aerial Harpy-like one, which appears only briefly and is used for their Aerial Slam attack, in which the Wyvern enters a form similar to a Harpy and hovers in the air briefly before hurtling downward into the ground, launching all nearby non-Vex away and dealing [[Arc]] damage. | |||
Their Warp Lances, shields, Aerial Slam Attack and high durability make Wyverns highly dangerous to new players, in some cases more so even than [[Hydra|Hydras]]. Against higher level players, however, especially those wielding the [[Beyond Light]] [[exotic]] pulse rifle [[No Time To Explain]], Wyverns can be just as weak as their lesser Vex brethren. Wyverns will also be easily shredded when caught in a hail of fire from multiple players. | |||
