With the orca being added back in the game, it would only be natural for the arch wyvern to make a comeback too. This time, however, it should behave more like a mini-boss than a reskinned wyvern with more health. Here are my suggestions to make it a mini-boss:
The arch wyvern sprite looks like a dragon, so it could breathe fire when charging at you, somewhat like how spazmatism does it.
The arch wyvern could spin around you in an attack, making fine movement essential in the fight.
The arch wyvern should do a visible chomp when hitting you with its head. This would do 110 damage in normal mode, scaling up with difficulty. It would also give you a bleeding debuff.
The mini-boss would rarely spawn instead of a wyvern, at less than half the spawn rate. There would also be a spawner to be able to summon it manually. This is called the “Scaly egg” crafted with 5 souls of flight and 5 shadow scales/tissue samples at a demon/crimson altar.
The arch wyvern could drop a wyvern summoning staff at a 50% drop chance. It makes a minion that follows the wyvern's behavior, directed at enemies. The minion can pierce through enemies and go through walls, just like the wyvern itself. The minion gets longer the more summon slots you use, just like the stardust dragon staff.
The staffs base damage is 18, with the wyvern minion gaining more damage with additional summon slots used. It also has very weak knockback.
Let me know what you think of this suggestion, and feel free to add to it with your suggestions.
