If you are a new player and are not sure if you want to tame one read this
Its a must have flier its not very fast but is pretty strong and can carry A LOT
It also has reduced weight on some stuff so it can carry even more
And they are pretty easy to tame by just luring them in a simple and cheap trap for which you can find a tutorial on youtube
When taming will fast tame when in fast regeneration mode, fancy plus signs floating around them
PC players using Xbox controller pick up Dinos with left trigger. They don’t have a tight turn radius so I find it easier in most cases to sprint fly ahead of what you’ve aggro’d and land to fight them head on. Go watch Captain Fatdog video on YouTube for a low material cost Argy trap. Works like a charm.
It only takes 3 raw prime meat to tame a level 1 argy, but i recommend bringing more just in case
It’s really good for farming especially that u can easily level up their stamina and it’s in huge amounts along with weight,and it can pick up numerous dinos for harvesting or transportation like the ankylo and it’s pretty easy to tame,just keep shooting on em tranq arrows if ur lazy to do a trap
I don’t use any trap I just shoot it out from the sky
When taming an argy, the easiest way is to try to get it to activate its “regeneration” buff on a dead animal. This will drain its food and make taming extremely fast and easy once it’s knocked out.
Use your 4 stone gateways to trap this with 2 reinforced doors on each end. Then put a sleeping bag next to the trap and go to sleep.BEST AREA FOR TRAPPING IS ON TOP OF THE VOLCANO.
Wake up and knock it out.
It will attack the trap all night and lose all its food.
Put the food in and it will instantaneously start eating.
This works with anything that will attack the gates non stop. Doesn't work for animals that run after being hit. If it was helpful share this so that others can see this.
I tamed a couple of these pretty easily. I just shot with tranq arrows while an argy was circling me. Knock it out, and then tame with preferred choice of food (mine is prime meat, I’m too lazy for kibble). Then keep them safe, pump a few narcotics, and then bam. You got an argy. I bred the two females and the males, and 66% imprinted on the male baby and 100% on the female baby. The female’s movement speed is over 200% and I get around the entire island without having to land for stamina. Good luck 👍🏻
If they where faster and can take u with his/her claws it would be much harder to deal with.
Once I was venturing through redwoods with my argy but suddenly a carno came vut my strong argy saved and killed the carno
If you see one of these you can easily out run them but be careful there are other dangerous things around them. So to be safe always bring a pterodactyl
These guys are actually pretty easy to tame if you have the right equipment. When trying to capture one to tame I find the easiest way is just shooting them with a couple of tranq arrows (it takes less than 10 most of the time and they are pretty slow so you can sprint a bit ahead a shoot from there) another way is to bola them with a metal bola but you need a ballista turret and it takes a lot more recourses. Beforehand, you should probably already have a saddle made so once it’s tamed you can just ride it and not have to worry about getting killed on the way back to your base. Also, make sure you have some stego egg kibble to put in its inventory cause it’s fairly easy to tame if you do. One last thing you’ll also want to do is make a few spike walls to place around you and your mount while it’s taming especially if your in a dangerous area where your easily attacked. ( I’ve learned from experience) Good Luck!
