Argy trap (also works for griffin):
Takes 4 stone gate frames, one reinforced gate, and 3 stone pillars. Pick a spot that is flat and also away from any predators, including compy and dilo. Face going the same way you plan to fly them in, so that gate opens in. Place first frame then slowly walk forward until the frame isn't snapping at weird angles and place it, this gets the spacing right. After placing 4th frame, put pillar right in the middle of it, then stack the other 2. Now walk backwards until you can place the gate in the first frame, I place a torch out front a ways to locate more easily. You now have a perfect Argy trap.
Using pteranodon, agro the Argy then lead in low and slow, opening the gate when you reach it. Pteranodon can slip right through but Argy cannot. Land and hop off, while Argy stays agro on your mount, run back and close the gate.
For taming, shoot with tranqs to partially torpor, sleep, then KO, balm, and rapid tame with raw prime meat (stego is my goto).
-Good Luck
Run and shoot easiest way to do it :)
A trick I used early on in the game is with a paracer. Have it on pacive and stand under it. Most if the time the argie won't be able to fly under it, and even if it does it will be a while before it manages to again.
A well bred argy can take down wyverns! Get a high level imprinted argy and attack the shoulder of the wyvern until it dies. Its turning radius is rather poor so it will have trouble hitting you with its breath.
Notice:
*Poison wyverns may simply kill you right off the argy with their poison spit.
*Ice wyverns may slow you down and break free of the shoulder attack.
*I have never attempted this against crystal wyverns, their turning radius is smaller so your results may vary.
*Do not attempt against multiple wyverns at the same time.
I have just recently tamed one of these thing and they are ridiculous! Step one: if you are a high level get a long neck with tranq darts if you are a low level get a crossbow or a normal bow and get about fifteen arrows for taming. If you know where a snow area is than go there, but if you don’t than listen there is a peninsula that has a spino spawn as you get to a higher level once you are in the center of the peninsula (not in the water at the forest line) you will head up and go LEFT but do NOT go inland on the rivers just follow the coastline I recommend getting a few raptors or a baryonix because you might need to defend your unconscious argy once you are in a sighting distance from the snow you might see an argy or two flying around. But whatever you do there is one danger to this taming scorpions and hiuenas I recommend not attacking those and from a distance shoot at the argy and lure it away from the hiuenas and the scorpions and then nock it out. Me and my friend used two cooked prime meat to tame this however it was a level one it was still awesome. ATTENTION PLEASE READ AFTER TAME head back to the peninsula but before you go to fare down the coastline there will be a massive tree with two stone arches with and explorers note if you have a saddle ride your argy onto the not and my lvl one got eight levels and we beefed him up our character even got an entire level even though we are like level eighty if you liked this tip please tap on the arrow pointing towards the sky

So to make a argy trap that I think is best is make 4 dino gates made of stone and not behemoth then make 2 reinforced doors then once u do that then place the dino gates 1 foot away from eachother then place the 2 reinforced doors at the end and run through there with argy run through the side and close the back door boom u got a argy

Easy to tame if you know what you’re doing! I pteranodon and hit the level 20 argentavis. I got to a high car place and shot tranqs at it while it was chasing us. About 5 tranqs later it knocked out.
All I typically do to tame it is that I just sit on a good level stego with hardened plates and shoot it with a longneck and some tranq darts.
Worked on a 135 arge with primitive longneck
Just took a few extra darts as I missed a few times as it was flying away
Then just go collect some prime meat and feed it narcotics when needed.
there are cheats to get this animal you can find them on YouTube.
This will probably be the easiest way first of all if you want get a high lvl argentavis wild kill a couple of thing and knock it out while healing this will cause its hunger to deplete to 0 and you can tame it fast
Use a bow. First one fully charges Rhen shot many not charged until it flees and hit it whit fully charged arrow. It works for me in creative.
The insta tame method doesn't work anymore, I tried may 11th 2020 and I did exactly as said and it didn't work. It was a female lvl 65 and when it was knocked out it stayed asleep. I even waited until it woke up and she wasn't tamed.
