What are tips for argentavis? Tips and strategies for argentavis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
(Mobile user)I have tamed a few of these lvl270-300 in the harder difficulty and due to the higher base, I have found little/no need to upgrade stamina. This higher stamina base has been very useful for most monsters including terry who I had leveled to over 500 before he got splat by a titanosaur. I was able to focus more on melee damage or in argy's case the weight.
U can instatame it by making it eat something then u knock it yea instatame
Aggro range is increased by 200% while holding any kibble, eggs, or meat of any type. Cooked or not. Hope this helps! Also use them to carry ankys to metal mountain due to their quarter weight reduction to all rare minerals. Or use the argy himself!
These birds are frustrating to tame. When at low heath they will give it all that they got to escape.
Here is a story some one raid me and my friends and killed our twin baby argis
A pteranodon they can fit through two doors stacked up but an argy can’t so use that in your trap
When it is low on health kill a small dino and carry him to the bird, it will start healing from harvesting him
You can wedge him between two pillars and ceilings side by side pike to death. Easy start trap for farming.
Most usefull animal at Ark, not so fast as Pteranodon, BUT can fly much longer, can carry a lot if upgraded and can fight.If You use attack and wait on rocks strategy, then You can kill even Alpha carno/t-rex within few minutes.Of course if attack them without this strategy or birds stamina is low, then bye bye Your bird (Tested on Argy lvl 60, Health 8000, stamina 650 ...) Not so good for destroy bee house and taming giant bee :-o
I love these guys. In my server with my friends, i created a tek argy baby incubator hatching area. (whatever it’s called) Tek windows with mating on. I have about 10 of these guys now.
How to tame an argy the easy way:
1.find a highlvl argy
2. lure it out of the redwoods mountain .also get rid of the corpise to prevent distractions on argy. pls use flyiers with a lot of stam and health.
3. set ur tame on the ground and passive
4. dismount the tame ur ridding
5 time the shots use crossbows (with tranq arrows) to get headshots
6. get prime(you can get only from harder and larger creatures)
7. starve it
8. defend it until its awake
9. congrats you have tamed an argentavis (saddle lvl 62)
Hey! Sort of directed at the mobile player who found out that Argentavis food drains incredibly fast if they're knocked out with the healing buff from a corpse. I'm a PC player and just tested this- the Argentavis' food drained over 1k immediately. Have fun taming!
Okey I know probably nobody cares but I just got so lucky: My argie was on low health (100/950 ) and could get easily killed by a Rex. There is the thing, while flying out of the volcano mountain, I miss clicked and went out of my argie. Just in front of a level 120 Rex. I thought we would just die ( me and my Argie ) but I managed somehow to jump on it and get away of the Rex. ( the point is that the Rex was attacking a ptera so it didn’t attack me directly which gave me the time to escape. If this ptera wasn’t there my argie would be probably gone )
