To insta tame a argy first you gotta die and respawn then give it just enough torpor but it's still not asleep then drag your body and let it eat the body then knock it out its hunger will go down instantly so it will any type of food then you have an argy

I’ve had almost 5 argys … they keep getting murdered. I love these guys because their saddle has a smithy in it!

For beginner players the easiest way to tame one is to find a lower level around 10-15 lead it away with another flying animal most likely a pteranodon and shoot it with a cross bow and Tranq dart takes around 5 once it’s knocked out place prime meat and soothing balm it takes less than 10 minutes.

I don't know why but a lot of people use 5 gateways. It can get trapped in just 3

I use in pair with anky... Invest into weight for the argy and melee in anky (anky already has a busted reduced carry wait). Get over (at least) 1k weight in argy to carry the anky to metal nodes. You just need to drop them on the nodes ride them destroy node drop any stone/flint gathered and repeat. No moving on the anky required. Leave when 80% of argy weight is full for fast flight back to base with large collection. I got ~3300 metal with this (boosted rates/ single player)

You can find these in the snow place

Once I was getting metal and stuff but then I got thirsty in the game I looked everywhere but I couldn't find water. Then I passed out I saw my Argy then it just glitched and teleported away. Sence then I couldn't find him. Then I found a fish I tamed and it said following silver stone.Pray for silver stone.

They can almost carry every creature in ark get your friends and dominate the server 👆if this is helpful thx.

Here's one of the best tricks in ARK MOBILE : If you sleep (with a bed or a sleeping bag), ALL the dinos in your render food bar will be set to 0 (when you make them unconscious, you can see that). After the taming process, the food bar will return to full again (no matter how much taming food you gave the dino). Thanks for reading

Would recommend use with a anky and go long distances to find metal if the metal veins near you are not respawning

These guys can pick up large juvenile dinos. I accidently picked a baby carno from a crowd of raptors while doing supply drop runs

Fun fact: If you take an Argy while it's rapid regeneration is active, it takes instantly(happened with me)...

If collecting metal, stone, and wood. Get a farming team that consists of a anky, beaver, and a doedicurus. Collect materials with them and keep designated materials in the inventory as the have weight reduction on them. Pick this dinos up with an arge and you can carry more of these materials then you would with just the arge. I know a lot of people already know this but just had a buddy who didn’t so figured I would say something just incase others don’t.

Put a saddle on one of these, they become a smithy.

Short Taming Guide:

1) Go to East beach by giga mountain (North 1 / East 3).

2) Set up the argy trap on the beach (4 stone gateways with one gate at each end).

3) Place down some beds for back up.

4) This area often has argys flying around on the beach, so if you see one shoot it with an arrow and lure it into trap.

5) Tranq it using body shots mainly.

Please note this is a guide for those who lack a flyer or tame which can get them to more dangerous argys spawn zones.

I feel like dodo needs to add another KO factor for X creatures now the genesis is out cuz they take way more darts than a normal argy

Utility of the argentavis:

Jack of all trades: decent stat distribution, good attack, utility, and stamina.

Weight/long distance travel: high stamina, high stamina efficiency, and high weight stat

Material carrying: weight reduction on many materials like metal

Taming: has good attack to clear area and good health in case of getting assaulted by carnivores. Has weight to carry traps. Can also fly away in case of danger.

Regen: heals astoundingly fast after eating a corpse

Carrying dinos: able to grab mid-sized Dino’s like ankys and parasaurs.

Disadvantage:

Speed: much slower than other flyers like pteranodons

Difficulty to tame: found in dangerous areas (redwoods, snow, mountains, carno island)

Saddle: unlocked at a fairly high level of 62, and requires a lot of chitin/keratin

To tame a Argy (argentavis) you will need 4 gateways, 2 Gates, about 20-30 tranqs (for 150 argy, with using a corssbow), safe place and prime meat. Firat, place a trap made of those structures written higher, find an Argy, trap it then shoot with tranq Arrow (better shoot in head, because it will gain 1.5x multiplier. I prefer feeling it firstly a dead dino, then knock it out. Feed it raw prime meat, because it gives better taming process.

I watched a YouTuber knock out a level 27 argy using like 10 tranq arrows and a bow.

Here is how to tame an argie from a very scared cat player:

Get 3-4 gate ways and put enough distance between them for you to get through but not an argie line them up so it looks like this from a side view |||| next grab 2 gates and put them on both ends of the trap meaning the two on the very outside keep one closed and one open.

To trap: aggro the argie and lead it in the trap then close the open door then escape through the gaps between the gates.

Knockout: use tranq darts or arrows to knock out pay attention to the argies health using a magnifying glass is helpful so you don't kill the argie

Taming: argie is a carnivore so use any type of meat best to use mutton or prime meat or kibble if you have any but normal meat will work.

Uses: carrying medium creatures useful for metal gathering during to high weight

There are many of these traps on YouTube if still confused most YouTube vids of ark will use this trap or others.
