Looking for the safest way to tame an Argy in the Redwoods? Here's your guide!

Step 1, grab a Pteranodon and fly over to the Red Peak.

Step 2, set up a little camp and build your trap, I used the 5 stone gateframes and the reinforced gates with a bit of space between each

Step 3, find your Argy

Step 4, lead them to the trap

Step 5, hover at the entrance and wait for them to be right behind you

Step 6, fly in

Step 7, the Argy should be in there, and if you have any other tames, aggro onto your other tames until the gate starts to close

Step 8, close the gate

Step 9, knock it out, or do the starve feeding glitch

Step 10, give it any meat, raw meat gives about 10% per feeding so it's not that bad

Step 11, wait for a bit

Step 12, name your new Argy!

Good luck and use this info how you will! I tamed my two Argies, Kokichi and Shuichi, with this

Happy and safe hunting! ^^

I usually bring at least 30 tranq arrows and a crossbow, then I make a trap using 4 dinosaur gateways an two gates, works pretty much every time for me.

A great trap for these useful fools in ASE

1 stone foundation

3 stone double door wall things

1 double reinforced door

2 stone railings

1 stone hatchframe

HOW TO BUILD

place the foundation somewhere safe

then place two doorways on the opposite side where you’ll bring it from

very important- always place another doorway on the left side of the 2 doorways and place an actual DOOR and dont forget to KEEP it CLOSED

place a railing on top of step ‘s doors and another one on the opposite side

hatchframe on the top of the trap

LEAD IT IN

The traps cost-efficient and reusable and you can fit a pteradon in the gap of the two doorways or run inside to lead your argie but when you trap it: open the door to keep it stuck

Feed kibble or prime meat and when tamed, close the doors and let out one of the best tames in the ark!

if you need a video, search up CAPTAIN FATDOG as he has many tutorials for traps for both ASE and ASA

An argentavis can't fit through a ceiling with one tile missing, but a pteranadon or lymantria can. Build a trap with one corner ceiling missing, aggro the argentavis, fly in one side and out the missing ceiling tile, and land. Dismount, run around, and close the entry door. Tame safely at your leisure.

I tame everything the old fashioned way...

Shooting them until they inevitably fall asleep and force-feed them until they love me :)

Ahhhh who remembers the time when they set there argy to passive thinking it will fight back but got killed by silo or ants

MONSTER LOG

Argentavis

Behavior: Aggressive

The Argentavis is the bully of the sky. It is find on every map, but Abbreviation (I probably misspelled that). It is recognizable by it’s giant eagle structure, while it’s a giant vulture. It comes in pretty colors, but don’t be fooled, it will think your a McDonald advertisement Big Mac. Once tamed, it was but one of your most useful mounts. It has great energy and can kill medium dinos with ease. It also regains health fast if it eats a corpse, which make it a great battle bird. Not to mention the fact it can carry medium dinos in it’s talon and small ones in it’s beak. If you want to tame one, it was be worth your time.

HOW TO TAME

You will need: 5 wooden/stone dinosaur gateways, 2 wooden/stone dinosaur gateway doors, 1 crossbow/longneck, Tranq arrows/darts, and taming food (Mutton is recommended)

Pre-make the trap by spacing the gateways in a way so you can get out but the argy can’t. Add the doors.

I will be referring to the island for locations

First, go to the volcano and find the argy you desire

Second, get it’s attention by shooting it

Third, make it follow you into the trap

Fourth, shut the doors

Lastly, Knock it out and feed it the taming food

Happy taming!

Forget all the things that they say right now use pteradons to steal wyvern eggs!

Havent played in ark since flyer nerf, last time I saw the argy it was just a cheaper and expendable, worse but faster quetzal. Now it looks like a completely brand new creature, it looks so amazing now, and it has so useful again, and the fact that you regenerate stamina by eating corpse can make you fly forever. Truly a jack of all trades, I loved it before the nerf, now I love it again and I love it even more now

I killed a lvl 50 alpha raptor in under 2 mins

On one of these

They’re amazing

If you need an easy trap to build for an argie

Look up Captain Fatdog for argie or other traps

or if you need a quick trap that can—well TRAP a large variety of creatures, search up Mgen

Both are YouTubers

Love to Mgen and Captain Fatdog

Here’s a recommendation for easy mode players.

1. Find a good argy

2. Shoot near 15 tranq arrows at it

3. Put a stack or two of cooked or raw meat inside

4. Sleep in a sleeping bag and give the argy some narcotics

5. Wait a few more minutes

Congratulate yourself

I just tamed my first Argy and I'm wanting to go to the snow biome does anyone know if agrys loose control when Yutys roar?

Argy's can now carry Anky's and Doed's. Making them very useful for getting metal and stone quickly.

If an Argy you’re trying to tame is spawned in a dangerous spot (A place where lots of predators also spawn and could possibly kill the creature you’re trying to taming) Set up spiked walk around the area, so predators get killed or hurt when they walk too close to the spiked walk) This usually works for most predators.

In my opinion, Royal Griffins are cheap Argy's. I mean, they're way harder to tame, you have to deal with that respect crud, and they don't even deal as much damage. Also, they all pretty much look the same, while with Argy's you can get a varied colour palette. Argy's can also carry more creatures, too. The only perks of a griffin are: 1. Prestige. 2. They can glide 3: You don't need a saddle 4: You can fire from their backs 5: They're multi passenger. But, is all that worth staring at a screen for, like, 6 hours?!? With an Argy, you can just hold a second player in it's talons, and that's multi passenger, and that player can fire, too. I'll also be posting this in Argy and Royal griffin, too. One like = One respect for Argy's!

If you want to easily farm with A doed or anky, stay still while flying by a metal rock or normal rock and they will automatically swing

Lift an Anky with an argument after the anky is full of metal and you can carry so much more metal than if you put the metal in the argy up this if helpful

Build an argy cage with 6 foundationd, 1 dino gate, 24 or 32 doorframes, then ceiling. You have to lure the argy inside so you can shoot it down safely cause they fly away when almost down.

Don't forget to build a taming hut / room and lure the bird in. They fly off and don't come back if you start tranqing them in the wild.
