Fun fact: If you take an Argy while it's rapid regeneration is active, it takes instantly(happened with me)...
If you want to tame one of these do the steps
1. Find a nice level you want to tame
2. Place 3 behemoth doors with no escape
3. Shoot with rifle
4. Place the door when it is inside the trap
5. Knock to out
6. Feed prime meat
7. Enjoy your new argy
YOO GUYS I think I just made up my own Argy trap randomly from meh brain :O Its cheap, it works well even on mountains.
I used this for trap testing:
1. A Stone Foundation
2. 2 Stone Ceilings
3. 4 Stone Railings
4. 2 Stone Pillars
After building the trap I got attention of an Argentavis and I run trough the entrance of the trap and put 1 railing behind it and BOOM. It worked lol
Note: I can't explain how the trap looks like because we can't share images here.
Definitely must have tame when playing on The Island, get a decent one and you should be good for combat and transport.
Try to tame it. It will help ALOT. Trust me.
This is for the ark mobile players (including myself) before taming anything I recommend sleeping in a simple bed before knocking out the creature you're gonna tame because it helps and I mean it HELPS alot with decreasing the food of the creature
Kill an alpha carno which can be found near the volcano and you get a bunch of prime mean, knock out the argy then bam give it all the prime meat and it’s so quick
If theres water nearby you dont need any traps or anything like that. Just keep going in and out of the water because the arge cant hit you if your in the water. (You can only use a crossbow because it can shoot underwater)
Bring a crossbow if not a bow or tek bow and lots of metal arrows if you can’t afford it then a lot of arrows if it doesn’t work out ride something fast or flying
The saddle level should be lower. I am not a very skilled player and I could have been flying with one of these 20 engram levels ago
Before taking, kill off other hostile Dino’s around the area so nothing will bother your tame
Argentavis can no longer be tamed using the starve method in which you activate the regen buff before you knock it out so it drains all of its food. It’s been patched my friends.
How to tame an argentavis:
A lot of people like to build traps for this, but I just don’t get why
Materials:
A high level pt or another good health Dino if u have cryopods.
A bow or crossbow. Doing the hunt dilo mission will give u a good bow and I use it instead of crossbow.
40 tranqs is enough for crossbow
Process:
1. Find a high level argy
2. Feed it until full health with corpses
3. Use your tanky Dino to tank while you shoot the argy. If the argy’s about to die lead it to a corpse and it regens insanely fast.
4. Leave prime in its inventory. U do not need narcs but if u tame on normal meat then bring some narcs.
Uses:
Super useful weight reductions on I think metal crystal and other late game high tech stuff.
Carries medium-sized animals such as doedic anky and beaver so u can farm with them.
Has high damage and great stamina.
Looks very cool basically collect on the island.
Enjoy your argy!
I just tamed up a boyfriend for my female argy and I named him striker all you need to do to tame one is get some tranq arrows and meat you only need nine arrows depending on it's level once it's nocked out just feed it meat and you have an argy up this if it helps.
Real people tame this on the redwood mountain with no trap and just fish meat and tranq arrows.
Great creature to have overall. I tamed a level 70 that SHOULD have been a level 110 after the tame, and as it was eating, I left to get more prime meat and when I came back, 2 sabers were attacking it. It lost efficiency and at the end of the tame, it was level 80. I put absolutely no attack nor health(health was around 1300), and I was attacked by a level 5 alpha raptor with 3800 hp. I decided to fight it cause my arge was a low level anyway, and I won! Other things attacked and whatever I killed, i healed from the carcass, so I was healing while fighting it, (I was landed during the while fight) AND, with every attack, it pushed back the raptor, so it barely even hit me. Very good👌🏽
I always find the easiest way to k.o them is pulling them to the top of the volcano and running towards its feet fired darts or arrows. At the top when they attempt to run away they don't really fly up.
Drag corpses to it if you want to tame it but it’s low health. They heal ridiculously fast when eating corpses.
