What are tips for argentavis? Tips and strategies for argentavis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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 )
Lets talk how USEFUL this creature are: i have a argentavis that have 2k of life, i already killed 4 alpha raptors, alpha trex and alpha carno without dying, just put the point into health and damage (if u want a fighting argentavis) (recommend putting the points into the other too)
Just tamed one and it is so slow but has a lot of weight and health and damage it has a weight reduction of obsidian metal and crystal
Best way to level up for the saddle? Any Ideas? I’ll leave your idea a thumbs up if it works
Note: I’m level 45-
Hey guys!!
I have very utility idea. So listen, on mobile theres once per hour free gift. Just save it main menu back to game open gift, if You got trash reload data. Sometimes gifts drop saddles . Repeat progges until u get argie saddle, this also drops theriz and rex saddle.
So let’s open gifts!!!

To avoid your Dino leaving out of the blue, put it in a “barn” style house. I have had my birds peace out one too many times into the sky and I cannot get them down. Very frustrating… also happened to my pteranodon :(
Any tips??
Just for reference I tamed a a lvl 125 argentavis with a bow and tranq arrows and one toxicant arrow,bow did 110 torpor damage because torpor scales with weapon damage argentavis had just over 1000 health and I nearly killed it was left with 37 hp be carefull trying to tame a argentavis if it’s hp gets to low go for body shots instead of head shots since head shots do 10x damage check it’s health and torpor very often otherwise you will probably kill it hope this helps
OK I have like five their names are vulture, eagle, owl, Dove and Phoenix at first I had used like a cage to trap it and then punch it a bunch of times until I learned about four or five narcotic arrows could nock it out faster then I use regular meat to start it as I go and get prime meat if this Helped Please click up
All I had to do was take a Pteranodon to Y30, X80 and there were a lot of Argentavis' there get off your Pteranodon and use it as a distraction, Trank the Argentavis until knocked out I suggest putting some levels into health on the Pteranodon if you want it to survive, use prime meat or normal meat to tame it it's really easy and it's a great bird to have
If ur starting out what I think you should do is tame a pt, this can be on valg rag - they're the easier map because of mutton but then get a stone foundation 8 stone singular door ways and a ceiling play 6 door ways on the foundation and put roof on top , gey argy attention when once in trap put 2 door ways behind it
