I'm aware, however there are blood and ember eggs, there should be tropical eggs as well. I've already tamed several tropical eggs. There are Tropical Heir wyverns but no eggs.

Ah OK

I've gotten a 210 trop wyvern egg on my server. They exist just have to find the nests around there. Yes your right though, blood and ember are far more common. Probably because they are far more useful

where did you find them?

According to the Wiki the nests will spawn eggs from near heir wyvern parents so it´s pretty random what you get, you´ll probably just got bad luck.

@OP, this has been our experience as well. Ember and Blood, no Tropical, even tho we have the Tropical heirs. Have done multiple wipes as we are also having nest spawning issues. There is one nest (same location every time) that doesn't despawn after the egg is removed. After much trial and error, we have figured out that no new nests will spawn until we "creative-mode" remove it (even killing the heirs doesn't cause new nests to spawn). After destroying that nest, within a fairly short period of time, nests start spawning again. This seems to happen every time an egg is removed from that particular nest.

I've seen the nests spawning above the wyvern cave itself. And even no nests spawning and just floating eggs. I rarely see an egg inside the cave, and only see them outside the cave itself

Just to echo my experience. No Tropical eggs, Blood and Ember just seem to alternate. Deleting nests does seem to make them spawn faster. Seems like there may be a bug for tropical ones.

I think your right.

I'm having exactly the same problem.
Have got to the point here I have tested with "creative mode" type approach, cleared every wyvern heir and all nests in the area. Nests keep spawning but only Blood and Ember eggs in them. Haven't seen a single tropical egg in a week.

Have found that killing all Heirs in the vicinity seems to make nests spawn faster (as new heirs spawn in) and I have tried keeping all but tropical heirs alive, only killing the tropical heirs, etc. Still no Tropical Eggs :(

The way the nests work is they use the wyverns near them to find a breeding pair and that's what kind of egg you get.

It's random which pair is selected if there's several eligible, so it does work more to your advantage if you kill off the blood and ember heirs but not the tropical ones, but as respawns will happen to replace blood and ember, it's a very short term advantage.

When I was going for eggs around a week or two ago, it was the same...the tropical were super scarce... I got like 8 or 9 of blood and ember before getting even one tropical but now I have a nice, high level breeding pair of tropical ones to breed my own.
You Just gotta be persistent.

Edit to add: if you play single player, or host your own server, there's a mod that lets you add Nests to the game. Using the mod, you could put a nest down in that wyvern area and set it to ONLY spawn tropical wyvern eggs. If you'd prefer to go that route, the mod is Simple Spawners.

thanks. Have ended up taming a wild Wyvern pair and breeding them now. Lower than what I probably would have got from an egg but at least I now have one :)
