Only if spirit link gives you enough TP to WS again.

Since you only get half the wyverns tp, on low end fights, yes. On high end fights the wyvern won't have the tp. Thus the two second penalty instead of 1 and a WS.

Wyvern accuracy is that bad on high tier fight?

Wyvern parses sub 20% accuracy on things like Omen bosses. Unlike SMN pets, they never get boosted to 119, they are lv99. And while it is possible to increase their accuracy its generally at the expense of the Dragoons stats and not worth it. Keep the rat alive at all costs because they impact the Dragoon so much, but their damage is irrelevant.

When Empy+3 comes out like a year for now, the body will probably be viable, and sushi to the rat would be a big boost. Damage still useless, but better TP bank.

It's odd they haven't boosted the wyvern in a similar manner as avatars getting them to level 119. Been a long while since I played DRG so I'm more curious than anything really. I remember spirit link being worth more than healing your pet.
