What are tips for argentavis? Tips and strategies for argentavis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
You can tame a argy up to level 20 on foot they don’t do to much damage that’s how I got my argy but it is best if you use the darts because it is easier to hit while the start flying away
These giant vulture-like birds are usually found in the redwoods, mountains or snow areas. They will not attack you unless you hit them or go near them. If they are near you try to not kill anything if you need it for it's drops unless you can defend yourself from it. If it spots a corpse and you arr near it it will attack you in the attempt to steal it from you because they are well, just giant phreistoric vultures
Just spent 40 minutes trying to K.O a level 135 with a crossbow and narc arrows.... it flew over water so I had to wait for it to land, shoot at it, then wait for it to land again..... etc
These bird are a good starting tame they have good stats for bobs and the best way to tame it at a low level make a trap so 5 Dino gateways and 2 gates you can find lots of videos on YouTube or if you want this bird at endgame you just need some shocking tranq darts and shoot it and it should knock out then feed it meat best for faster taming is prime meat or it perfected kibble is stego kibble like if this helped
I would recommend taming a male and female then breeding as this is the easiest way to gain a high stat or army if u wanted to but don't keep going out and taming em it can be hellish especially at dead island
After you get an pteradon get an argument it will usually only use about 5-10 narcotics and they are NOT made for travling unless you are going to the snow biome they half weight on obsidian,metal and I think stone fact check me idk if that’s true now you can make a trap or you can face it off like a real man and shoot it in its face lap around it with a pteradon and feed it prime meat from killing low level argys
Easy have your pt with good hp good enough to tank fly it into the volcano and ko it in the volcano works on mobile idk about on pc/console but it works and it’s safe.
If your a new player, trust me, these guys are way easier to tame than you think. Just build a trap and get plenty of narcotics - lure it in by getting it to follow you - but don’t get too close. And boom you have a a argy!
A lot of these are found up north near the ice, easy to tame 3 or 4 narc arrows & a load of meat, pretty easy to kill too, a couple of swipes from your sword & it’s dead.
It’s basically a flying smithy and can carry a lot of weight
If you don’t have acces to a AC yet , just throw the egg on the ground inside your base at night/early morning. Temp between 8-14 celcius are perfect. Pick it up when it’s getting to hot in the late morning.
Because argy's spawn in spots with lots of predators, all you have to do is build a wooden spike wall around it when it's unconsious. Predators will get killed on the spike wall and won't harm your argy. I used this strategy with my gallimimus i was taming in the redwoods. I tamed it safely! You can use this with many diffrent creatures to protect them when they're unconsious. The bigger the creature, the more the walls. For an argy, i'd say around 6 walls. I once had knocked a therizino unconsious, and it was killed by dilos. If i had used spike walls, those dilos would have died! R.I.P therizino. Hope thos helped!
Imagine it could have a wing attack where it sends blades flying multiple times for each attack
you don't need trap just tranq arrows and meat
