What are tips for argentavis? Tips and strategies for argentavis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This fearsome predator can easily rip you to shreds, assuming you don’t just causally stroll underneath it as it tries to dramatically swoop down and murder you. You can get it awkwardly flapping in circles by doing this.
These guys are so great! Every survival i have created was made 40% easier when tamed. They get weight reductions in most things besides wood, they also have great weight. They can do so much damage and if you get too damaged you can just fly away. They are also great at killing bugs. Hope you found this helpful!
If you are taming one and it is trapped in dino gateways, I would recommend killing another dino and let the argy harvest the body. It will get the rapid regen buff and that also uses there food stat very quickly. So do this if you want it to tame a little bit faster.
For ark mobile: traps are not required for low levelled argies, just keep a friend or two with you and tranq it when it's attacking you, using toxicant arrows is better, it will go down in just 4-5 toxicant arrows.
Catch them in an argentavis trap. Get a magnifying glass. Shoot them with narc arrows until it is just about to go unconscious (Use the magnifying glass to inspect the torpor) feed the argentavis a body. Imediately after it consumes the body shoot it with narc arrows to finish knocking it out (*if it does not have the green effect around it's head do not knock it out! If the effect is gone feed it another body) Purpose when the argentavis gets knocked out with the effect his hunger will already by very low. Super fast taming!
This one of the best all around creature in the game, it carries a lot and has a weight reduction on most mineral resources and polymer, it can have great damage, and can also have high health and lots of stamina, this creature is a must tame and is a great traveler and harvester even into late game.
I found mine stuck in a rock so I shot it with tranqs with a crossbow in the head then broke the rock..so yeah
Requirements: parachute, cross bow, and tranq arrows
Make the argy Agro to you and be on top a mountain/hill jump of the hill with the argy Agro to you, shoot in the head and it should get knocked out if you hit enough head shots
Hi! It's astro again, leaving tips on dinos that you may want to tame.
The easy way on taming an argy/Agrentavis is to build a trap with dinosaur gates (Mostly stone regular dinosaur gates, not behemoth.) You place the gates in a row leaving you enough space to run out of the side. you put 2 doors on either side of the trap !!NOT ALL THE GATES. JUTS THE 2 ON THE ENDS!!, You will open the side with the argy, and keep the other side closed. You agro the argy, and run into the trap, and as it follows you, you're going to run out in one of the side cracks, loop around to the open door, and shut it.
Then you tranq the argy and hope for it to knock out. Then you feed it Prime meat, raw meat, mutton, or kibble (best ones)
If you run out of tranq arrows, do not panic, the argentavis' torpor is very low and will not drain a lot. Go back to your base, make more, the go back and keep tranqing. If your base is far away, ask a friend to keep come over with arrows and bring them to you.
Why is the argy good? Whats its purpose?
Well the argy is very good for carrying items. It has a reduced weight thing with stone, metal, metal ingots, and more. It will split it in half, making the difference by carrying twice as more to your base than needed
They are a absolute pain to take if your getting a high level one but it is worth it. A level 200 argie can easily take on a Rex
Bruh I found a lvl 104 ( highest I could find) and it was an amazing color wave, it looked like tan gums( The shoe ) but he escaped my trap somehow. He was flying in the ton corner and glitched out and flew away. Any tips for that?
Me and my tribe of 3 used 20 arrows each and it didn’t knock.But our aim isn’t the best lol
My argy died to a bunch of high level raptors can’t we get some f’s in chat pls
How to tame an argy. What you'll need: narcotics, biotoxen, or narcoberry, fur armor (for if your tameing in tundra), tranq darts (or arrows for bow), long neck rifle,
Sanguine elixir (optional), (if you want argy saddle), dino gates and gateframes (optional). Argy locations: carnivore island 🏝, the red peak, the volcano 🌋, like anywhere in the tundra, I think on Griffin Mt /fars peak,To tame argy: first craft long neck rifle or bow (not unless you have one already), next craft narcos for crafting tranq arrows and /or darts, next craft amount of tranq darts or arrows according to dododex, next craft dino gates and gate frames (optinal) ,then craft fur armor (for those who are tameing in tundra), if you ran out of narcos for keeping argy asleep 😴 then craft more, now your ready to tame your argy , first go to one of the locations i listed and find argy then build pen (optional)with dino gateframes in a line then place gates at both ends then open a gate (make sure that there is a gap between each gate so you can get in and out but argy can't) aggro argy and run into pen then the argy will be inside pen then close the door the argy cant escape then use darts (or arrows ) to knock out argy, once knocked out then give raw (or prime) meat to tame and feed the narcotics,biotoxen,or narcoberries regularly (id perfer biotoxen though)then just WAIT ✋️ ✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️ and eventually you'll get a argy. To tame without pen: just knockout with darts or arrow and give meat 🍖 and narcos regularly JUST WAITTTTTTTTTT✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️✋️
PS.This took me FOREVER to type so hope this helps you😀.
Don’t tame this thing while it flies over the forest.. Its unconscious body will be mauled by 10 raptors
