Tips & Strategies

What are tips for argentavis? Tips and strategies for argentavis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Everything in ARK that should be straightforward seems to always mess up. Can anyone confirm that the Captain Fatdog trap absolutely, 100% works? I’m planning to head up northwest, set up the cheap trap on the beach, and kite an Argy into it from the snow.
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.
Extremely useful. They're not fast, bred well they can hit pretty damn hard. Think of them as Jeeps of the sky. From weight reduction on nessescary resources to picking certain Dino's up. Even after the changes i.e can't pick up Baryonx they're still a must in any playthrough. Make taming Otters a breeze by their alternate beak grip
These things are super easy to tame except that they always live in dangerous areas. Bring a Tapejara or a pteranodon and land and dismount near some. Make sure you make sure that they are protected and that they’re on passive. Find and argy that’s high in the air that you like (use a spyglass to check the level) and start shooting with any weapon that you can equip tranq arrows/darts with. Keep an eye on your other tames and other Dino’s around and don’t die as you shoot the argy. Once it’s knocked out fly over to it with your tames and use your choice of food on it. Hope this helped and congrats on your new argentavis!

Honestly the best creature in ark screw wyverns idc
There are tones on carno island so go there if u are struggling to find one
Found one at the base of the mountain, lured it to the top with my pteranadon so it wouldn't get eaten by other predators. Some tranq darts and raw meat and was good to go
Your argy is evolving...
Your argy has evolved into dodo wyvern!
I found a 145 with INSANE stats, 1150 Stam and ZERO points in movement speed, so i trapped it, knocked it aut and hunted for prim meat, and when i came back, it was death😭😭😭
Healing argy doesnt cause it to starve anymore.
To be honest everyone’s talking about using Dino gateways to capture dinos but I never have used them. What I use is 10 pillars making a sort of u same and then stacking the rest on. I then add a ceiling to the middle pillar. I get a Argentavis to chase me and I run through the structure. Once the Argentavis is in structure, I place a stone fence behind it trapping it. I’ve done this method on a multitude of levels ranging from the basic 15 to 450.
Use a stone gateway with 3-4 stone fence foundations in front your pteranodon can get through but the argy gets trapped just close the gate behind it and tranq, use stone or better specifically because with stone wild therizino and giga are the only ones who can damage stone structures
Easy tame, no cheats:
Equipment needed. 10 or so tranq arrows
.Crossbow/bow
.lots of meat
.Soothing balm (10x)
All you have to do is fire tranq arrows at Argie keep away but it doesn’t hurt if he attacks once or twice, you can do it however you want just knock it out with tranq arrows (really simple) then place all your meat in its inventory give soothing balm and for me it went from 0.00% taming then I waited for the white line to go up and from 0 to tame it was awesome, only lvl 2 but I will upgrade him myself also try on a low lvl I haven’t tried with a high lvl I don’t have anymore soothing balm.
From TheDinoKING
I just tamed one of these, and so far i don’t think I can pick up dinos that aren’t tamed in what I play on. (Nintendo switch) what should be my next dinosaur? I already have two spinos, a stego, a trike, a horse, a Bigfoot, (gigantopithocus) a raptor, a pachy, and those little armadillo things that collect stone well. I had just tamed a rex, but I lost it.
I tamed a low level one but it's easy for every level. First get 3 Dino gates and 2 gateway. Place one gateway and be ready with the other. Let one Aggro on you, run in the gate, use the other gateway and boom. Feed it with every type of meat you have, some narcos/biotox.
