What are tips for argentavis? Tips and strategies for argentavis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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.
I had read you could knock them out with slingshots. Does not seem to work on mobile. Tranq arrows work great
So you have to be very careful when you encounter one of these because they might have a friend with them and if you attack one of them the other one will come and these things are good for taking stuff and try not to die to one of these I hope this helped.
The argy did 569 damage it level 288
To tame this you need dinosaur gates about 6 and 2 of the door parts leave space between the dino gates just for you to escape run around the back then close the last door then use your darts and tame using raw meat or kibble
These are one of the best early to mid game tames on the island. These are relatively easy to tame but i will show you my favorite way to tame them.
first you should make some stone gateways and place them in a tunnelshaped structure,then place two dinosaur gates on both ends, make sure its just big enough so you can sneak through the cracks in between the gateway and the argy cant . next lire it in and knock it out, i reccomend using prime meat to tame it as its pretty easy to get and it is a good taming food. and then ride off into the sunset with your flying dinosaur chicken. :)
If you have a chance of killing one thru knocking it with say a crossbow, you can set your stuff aside and put down a sleeping bag. Then you feed yourself to it, it heals, you respwan at camping bag and get your stuff, and knock it. Works best with a trap
I went right on the edge of the Arctic area. There will be allosaurus, sabers, and scorpions and argies. Dart them and clear the area, feed anything on the list as long as you have narcs. No trap needed just use a longneck and darts. Happy Taming!😀
A wild argy will lose to an achita - snail who ate focal chili
After you tame it, boost up its stamina and weight, (Depends on the level) because if you put everything you need to make smithy items he will go slow,and that would lead to you burning up its stamina.
How to tame one easy : get a pteranodon with saddle, get icthy with saddle, find nearby leed, and get tranq arrows (35 or 40 maybe.) step 1: mount your icthy, and scrape meat off of a leed until you get prime fish meat ( one leed is in front of my base, one is near me, one is at herbivore island, one is half way to herbi island, for me.) step two: get 35 or 40 tranq arrows ( you might miss and you need alot to knock it out)
step three: fly to red peak on pteranodon (make sure its attack target) find a flying, solo argy. step 4: aim and shoot at it, when it flys at you its even better the target gets wider step 5: once its unconsious put prime in its inventory step 6: there is your very own argy!
I don't know why but if I hit the head the damage is the same as the body. Someone can help me pls?
Hit it on a flyer then make it follow you just behind you to a safe place then knock it out the feed it primes and you are set
To tame get it angry. Once it's close enough then kick it over and over with a equus. Make sure your equus has good health to cope with the damage. Once it starts flying away shoot it with a few tranq arrows, and Bam! knocked out and ready to feed.
These are meant to be the greatest mining burden buddies you can get. They have reduction of weight for obsidian(for polymers), crystal, and metal(a very important mid-late game resource. They are also able to super heal when they eat corpses, making them less likely to die and more likely to carry more back and forth.
