Tips & Strategies

Best way to tame an argie is to have a taming cage on your raft. You build it by making a two foundation alley with ceiling, doorframes, and two Dino gates. Lead the argie with you pteronadon. Once lined up, you need to close the second Dino gate once the argie entered the first gate. Then go around and close the first Dino gate. Then you traq it through the doorframes. Once knocked out, you are free from any wild Dino's since you are in the middle of the ocean.

*BEST taming way* I found a 180 (that’s my wild max) then, lure it to your trap (4 Dino gate ways closely placed) when you lure it in close both opposite gates and escape (on ptrandon or barefoot out the slips), tranq dart it took me like 50 or sum) When unconscious starve a bit, then feed it prime meat, I got a 267 perfect js 269 if you want that make a ton of kibble but it’s a waste of time lol, have fun.
Just use a longneck rifle with 2 tranq darts and you can easily knock it out.
Don’t wast materials on a trap. As long as you have a decent longneck, just shoot it. It will run, but as long as you have a good Rifle, you can take the argy out.
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
Had a level 30 one unconscious in my easy single player game!
Then a raptor killed it.
I killed a lvl 50 alpha raptor in under 2 mins
On one of these
They’re amazing
If you lose your argys go to the place that shows your character press the tames button which says how much animals you have, Look for your argys name press request, then wait. It will tp to you, if it’s alive.
1-2 tranq darts in head and he’s knocked, go get some meat and kill some of those jellyfish and get bio toxin then put the bio toxin in it and feed it until the argies hunger is on 1000 or less then put all your meat in it
Fly Safe
You can instant tame an arg, just need to almost knock it out, and check its torpor with a magnifiant glass, stop shooting it and give it a dead body. Once the arg eats it, shoot it really fast while it has its healing buff. If it’s knock out and still has its buff, the food will drain super fast. GLHF!
