Overview[ | ]

Making their home in the grasslands and forests, Nidhogs dominate Archos's Skies. Their peculiar obsession with metallic objects has earned them reverence among Archos's Dwarven population, as the Dwarves originally discovered their home in the mountains by following the Nidhog's natural metal ore-tracking abilities. Nidhogs have two sets of wings, giving them unparalleled control and speed in the air.
~ Text from the press kit

An elite variant of the nidhog can be found in the wild and has a chance to transform into a Windrider.

Description[ | ]

A large flying creature resembling a wyvern, the Nidhog is a territorial predator with a powerful jaw.

Taming[ | ]

Knocking out a Nidhog can prove difficult, they are easily distracted as they will attack almost anything, this can make it difficult to hit the Nidhog with stone hook arrows or iron hook arrows. Using an Orb of Entanglement can increase your chances of hitting the Nidhog and lowers your chances of being killed.

They can hit hard without proper gear so be sure to wear a good set of armor while attempting to tame the creatures.

If they get close to being knocked out they will fly away, don't worry they will come back unless they are distracted by another creature.

The Nidhog is a carnivore that prefers food in the following order:
