Abilities and Traits

About the Wyvern

The wyvern is the loyal companion of every Dragoon in Vana'diel, summoned through the job ability Call Wyvern. They remain by their side until dismissed or defeated.

If dismissed with the pet command Dismiss at 100% HP, the recast timer for Call Wyvern will be reset.

The SP ability Spirit Surge will dismiss a wyvern and disables Call Wyvern while in effect.

A wyvern disappear if its master is defeated or charmed.

A wyvern will disappear if its master rents a Chocobo from an NPC. Summoning a Mount or using a Chocobo Whistle will not affect a wyvern.

Wyverns will not disappear when changing areas or receiving level restrictions.

Wyverns are considered Dragoons and thus share the same traits such as Accuracy Bonus and Attack Bonus. Unlike regular Dragoons, they also receive Subtle Blow traits. A wyvern's level is the same as its master's at the time of summoning.

Wyverns will not increase in level without reusing Call Wyvern or changing areas. Level restriction effects from battlefields and Level Sync must be reset in a similar manner.

At level 99, the wyvern's level will further rise with the item level of the Dragoon's mainhand weapon. Unlike regular levels, this can increase or decrease at any time by changing weapons.

Parameter Increase

A Dragoon and wyvern will receive a temporary parameter bonus for every 200 Experience Points or Limit Points earned, for a maximum of five bonuses at 1000 points. This bonus bestows numerous benefits for both master and wyvern.

Upon receiving each bonus, the wyvern's HP will be restored to full and a message will appear.

Each merit in Empathy effectively provides 200 experience points when using Spirit Link. A Dragoon with 5/5 merits in Empathy may maximize the bonus immediately with a single use of Spirit Link.

This bonus is reset upon zoning, loss of the wyvern, starting a Unity or Geas Fete battle, or otherwise receiving a level restriction.
