They probaly have the worst ai in the game as they are stupid which lead me to execute so many of my argentavises

They take half weight for crystal,metal,and obsidian.

the weight of metal is half on an argy

Argentavis is hands down one of the most important tames you or your tribe will need early game. It’s an amazing workhorse tame. They have:

1.) Huge carrying capacity. weigh scales insanely allowing it to carry well over 10k with a balanced build and easily double to triple that if you min-max.

2.) Stamina for days. Easily fly corner to corner in one go as long as they aren’t encumbered.

3.) can lift and carry smaller Dino’s. Anything smaller than a Carno, basically can be lifted by an Argy. Most notably, Anky and Doeds for mining. Allowing for easy solo/duo mining.

4.) Also allows you to transport smaller Dino’s to a safe spot your taming. Especially stuff like snails.

5.) good for combat and harvesting primes early on.

6.) You can use it to solo tame a quetzal.

Biggest drawback to an Argy is it’s slower than other flyers, like Ptera and Wyverns. But, still faster than a Quetz. But for what you get it’s an easy trade off.

Arguably the most necessary mount for single player

Roles:

————————————————————————————————

Resource Carrier

Since it has a 50% weight reduction on metal, metal ingots, crystals, obsidian, and stone, it is really great for carrying resources! It’s weight alone is a lot, meaning it could hold lots of stuff!

Player Killer

Due to the ability to hold most creatures, picking up humans in a PVP area and dropping them is real funny and helps you gain loot

Hunter

It can kill something while carrying it, making it really good for hunting! It’s speed allows it to not get hit, and it’s damage is high!

Dinosaur Transporter

It’s ability to carry most dinos, as I said before, is important for transporting tamed dinos to other places! Upgrade Stamina and sometimes Weight.

If you don’t have one, get one NOW. They are pretty easy to tame, and are great for transport and carrying things, whether it’s resources or creatures. Find them around mountains or in the snow. Pretty easy KO with tranq darts. The only problem is that they’re kind of slow! Thanks for reading!

Argy's are a great tame to get, if you get a saddle from a drop at a low level, immediatly get yourself an argy, it has an INSANE amount of uses which I will list:

1.You can use it to harvest organic poly (use sword or club to kill penguins, transfer poly to argy, has less weight reduction than pela, but has more total weight than pela)

2(ARK mobile only). These guys(along with quetzals) are the only real way to transport dinos. Chronicling them costs essence (expensive) and there's no crypods. Tape and Pter can carry very small dinos only.

3. Metal gathering. These boyos have a reduction on ingots and straight up metal, and you can use it to carry an anky(which harvests and has more weight reduction for pure metal)

4. Combat. Due to their ability to pick up dinos, you can pick up high level dinos and carry them to a turret area (pvp) and players(more dangerous bc shotgun, must i say more? They can also attack the dino they are carrying, which lets you farm something like parasaurs easier. They can also be used to airdrop certain dinos *coughs in level 500 arthropluera* onto enemy bases or tanky dinos into turrets *coughs in lvl 300 carbenomys*

5. Taming. As mentioned in the combat section, they're able to carry dinos, which lets you pick up high level dinos*coughs in max lvl wild arthropluera(i like arthros, can you tell?)* And take them to a safer place(for you safari tamers) or a pen to ko them and tame them

I agree with them having a tek saddle but not only having a smithy they have a fabricator too

These are great for taming small Dinosaur because you can hold it above while your team fires tranq and you can also go gather prime with it
