Wyvern eggs not incubating?

[001]

I got 3 air cons and put them together side by sides but the wyvern eggs aren't incubating. Did I do it wrong or need mor air cons?

depending your location/time of day/ conditions yeah you might require more. as long as you see something like "too cold" or "too hot" , put some more. you can go up to 10 easily or more depending conditions, some species have more sensitive eggs.

I just built a 5X5 and 2 high stone hut and lined the walls with Stone Fireplaces and light em up with wood [this makes a rather cool looking Stone Furnace like building]


(depending on what technology stage you are) I found this to be the easiest method for me to hatch the eggs [ need about 8 to 10 active to get the eggs hot enough but you couldn't stay inside very long] (and you get loads of charcoal for gunpowder) but the AC trick works too.

Isn't it easier with air cons? I mean how many air cons should I need?

That really depends. On ragnarok I used 12 ish AC units to get 1 ice wyvern egg incubating. Poison , lightning, fire, ice all have different temps. I used the fireplace method to generate gunpowder materials. Either one works it's just a matter of if you wanna use cheap Stone/Wood or Electronics,Crystal,Metal,etc.

ok

You could also mix them. Campfires work as well.
Edit: place the egg and surround it with campfires and AC units and you get the same result.

You need 12 ac to incubate 0_0?

Depends on the area you are in (warmer or colder temperatures will require more or less) my house is built in a rather cold chunk of Ragnarok. Possible you may need only 8. When you place the egg and hover over it it should say 1 of 3 things. Too hot, too cold, incubating...

For wyvern, air cons are a complete waste of resources. Just run 16 standing torches. Cheap as chips and does the job

[[FuFo] Mortucus]

depending were you are we had 8 aircons and 4 standing torches

Takes about 19 standing torches to hatch an Wyvern egg the cheapest way

You would need 16 AC units to incubate a wyvern egg, even in very cold conditions. At least you can make them incredibly compact, now that you can have structures go through each other. It is also most effective if you do it in a building meant to be a hatchery.

And as a response to the thing about the standing torch, yes that works but it becomes an obstacle if you are trying to get to the wyvern and get it out. at least the wyvern can walk over the AC units.

easy way is about 15 fires IIRC. Put them in a circle and chuck the egg on top.

construction also make a difference.. You should need the least amount of aircons in a adobe construction, compared to a bare metal frame. but metal also heats up like hell, and sometime you can in the mid of day incubate an egg with no aircons in a metal hut.. just pick it up at night or when it shows to cold, and place it again in the day when it hot.

AC is the safest way because they don't increase/decrease Temperature but "increase the fortitude in the room" so the eggs actually don't care about temperature. with ~15ACs you should be fine everywhere at every time
