To those of you who are strictly after utility...this beautiful avian is a flying Smithy.

You can now Literally repair crossbows On The Fly.

...Just maybe land first.

These things are great for getting other tamed. This is because they can pick up most animals and drop them into taming pins, and have a lot of health in case the taming goes wrong in some way, which can also allow them to defend your unconscious tame. I highly recommended it.

How to insta tame first trap argy and look on Dododex and shoot it all times but the last then place sleeping bag die drag body to argy have argy eat body the tranq out put meat in it and boom you have a argy ——CaptainAwsomeD

If you want to get to herbivore island, max out stamina and boom you’ve got the safest way there

To the person who's having trouble with their argy egg: You can also just incubate the egg when it's nightime, if you live on the beach. When the egg gets too cold, Pull out a torch. When it eventully says the torch is too cold, put it away and light a nearby campfire or standing torch. Once it says that's too hot, put out the campfire or standing torch and pull out the torch. Once that's too hot, put away the torch and let it incubate. Once it's too hot again, take the egg and wait for nighttime again, and repeat until the egg is hatched. Note: At the start of the night, you won't need a torch, the egg will incubate automatically. This works, that's how i hatched my twin males. It's a long strategy, but if you live on the beach you might not want to go all the way to the dangerous arctic to hatch your egg. Hope this helps!

The Argy is not just an amazing beginning tame, but also a mid and end game tame. Even after you get tekgrams(blueprints after you kill bosses) or even if you have tek, you will still use them. They are the best for PvP because they are slow, but they reduce metal, crystal, stone, and obsidian by half and if you have an Anky(spike ball tail dino) it will also reduce the metal by 50%. That's why you see people using these two dinos together because the weight after you pick up the anky will be 25% of the actual weight. Here's a tip, just use 3 to 4 stone gates and two gate doors( don't use behemoth) to trap it with tranqs or darts. If you don't want to wait for it to starve before you tame then when it runs away or is high torpor drag a dead body, player, dino whatever and let it eat it. Knock it out before the green glow disappears and it'll have almost 0 food. Have a great day.

How I tamed an Argent:

1. Shot it with tranq arrow to get its attention and to get its torpor up a bit.

2. When it follows me, I go the ground, then wait for it to get a little closer.

3. When it gets closer, shoot it with a bunch of tranq arrows ‘til it gets knocked out.

4. Gave Narcotics and fed it Stego Kibble.

If your using this bird to pick up hostile animals the animal can still attack you so use one with big big big big big BIG BIIIIIIIGGGGG amounts of health

Best to do a 3x3 stone foundation and 81 normal stone door frames make sure the door frames are 3 high and just make a normal stone dino gateway and some gates. Keep it distracted with a dodo in the cage so you can close the door. I recommend using bio toxin if you live near or in the beach since narcotics are really important for tranqs. Monitor the argy always. You can get a female and male to reduce your struggles in taming more. Just mate them. PS: Argies are great for taming the giant bigfoot things since they can pick it up. Mobile player here just got another baby argy

Very quick way to tame these is you get them trapped start shooting them in the head with tranqs for 3x torpor then when the reach 75% torpor the will try to fly away that’s when you kill as small Dino like a dodo hold it under the argentavis until it’s torpor drains just past 75% then it will attack you harvest the dead Dino and then as fast as you can fire as many tranqs into it (helps if you have a friend or a good crossbow or longneck for high levels) and if you can knock it out with it’s healing buff still active it’s good will Dorian very fast for a quick tame.

To rame these You can go to carno Island (they spawn in High numbers there) with a trike,clear the area of any rex's ,carnos or pulmonoscorpions and knock one out and tame:)

Btw You can easely get to the Island by an ichtyosaurus

MOST PEOPLE WILL RECOMMEND USING THREE STONE GATES AND TWO DOORS AS AN ARGY TRAP!

I also did tried it to trap a wild 300 lvl argy,but you know? I ended up getting killed by it.The thing is the door closes very slowly and creates time for the argy to escape.

So what you should do is make three stone gate,one door,three stone pillar

Place the three doors in a line , and don't place the door, instead put it on your hotbar.

Now at the last gate place the three pillars right at the center of it , this creates a gap for you to run and not an argy.

Now as usual, lure one into the trap,

Once you escape through the gaps between the pillars quickly run back and place it.

Placing a door is quicker than closing one that already got placed. I tamed the wild one using this trap. It's very effective.

And don't forget to test it before trying.

These animals can actually carry a baryonix

Its saddle works as a smithy.

Stay away from all the stuff that you can eat you

Watch out for these guys they will beat yu, best way to get rid of them is run or hit them with stun arrows they are basically impossible to kill by hand they automatically heal.

It can fly, it is a bird, you can see it

It has a weight reduction on polymer, organic polymer, metal, crystal, obsidian metal ingots so it can be used as a cargo bird.

They can have very high health and dmg so there also good fighters

They also can lift many dinos such a anky, doedic, baryonx, parasaur

ALSO I AM ON MOBILE

If you build a trap and trap it.... you got it

Argy cannot pick up Kaprosuchus on Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition… I tried. I failed. Kind of stupid if you ask me, since kapro is relatively small
