Who thinks they should have a dive bomb 👍🏻

Quite possibly the most important utility tame in the game.

They can’t be bola and they also don’t have call damage so if you knock it out in the air it won’t damage the argentavis

1-2 tranq darts in head and he’s knocked, go get some meat and kill some of those jellyfish and get bio toxin then put the bio toxin in it and feed it until the argies hunger is on 1000 or less then put all your meat in it

Fly Safe

Use left trigger to pick up animals. Right trigger to attack, witch can also be used on a picked up enemy's. pull left stick back to decelerate and forward on the stick to accelerate. The jump button is used to land and fly.

They’re actually really good tames, they have good carry weight and high damage, just don’t keep them on passive near dire bears 🥲 rip Eclipse, you’re son will be great

While slower than a ptera, they're pretty useful. They can pick up more dinosaurs and can kill them while flying, allowing you to pick off raptors and sabres and other small horrors with relative safety. Keep an eye on their stamina, just like a ptera you don't want to be forced down into a death trap

When battling one of these try to break it's turn radius therefore they won't be able to hit you

If you build I trap with four Dino gateways and on both sides put door you can trap them as long as you lead them in a close the door behind them. After that search up how many tranqs it’s gonna take to knock it out then do like 3 less then that amount. Afterwards bring a dead body to it and let it eat it. Once it’s done eating it should have a green aura then you knock it out. This makes it so it’s food drains faster.

If you are solo, or just starting out. The argy is the best bird to carry an anky around and farm metal. You can make some beastly birds too. When applying points, the numbers go up very nice.

If your getting chased by argys just kill something small and the Argus will go for the corpse. since they are scavengers, they that’s your time to run away

I’m gonna be honest, these things are the best! I mean, I saw this thing on Dododex and did some research and found out it is really good. I tame a lvl 20 and her and I were best friends. They have INSANE weight reduction, they have great health, and great stamina. They aren’t the fastest, but they will get you to where you need to go with only a couple stops. Mine is now like lvl 85 and I use her to kill alpha raptors and alpha carnos. Keep in mind this guy only has 15 hundred health. Overall, this Dino is a wonderful tame and is easy to tame, it has many uses and is hard to kill once you get a saddle for. I don’t care if you like, but I hope this helped. ;)

I had this argy I tamed and named him Mario. I didn’t even get to put a saddle on him before another argy came and started to attack us. Mario attacked him and they went into the sky. I tried to get him but then I got thirsty. I went to get water and when I came back, he wasn’t there. I searched for days and still couldn’t find him. I hope he still out there....

If you want to tame one in a safe area, aggro it with a pteranodon (because they are faster fliers than argents) and lure them to a safer area

ex. Empty Beach area. Be sure the argent is close behind you by flying slowly and when it gets a little too close, speed fly a bit then slow down, this also saves stamina. The argent might lose interest every so often but then just turn back and aggro them again. Once you reach the area, land the pteranodon, let the argent get close and tranq it

Its saddle is a smithy. And has a 50 % weight reduction for many materials. Can pick up dinos(nothing larger than carno, I beleive) which you can kill with the argent, or bring it back to a taming pen. Much better stam and weight than ptera's.

If you want to tame one instantly it can be pretty easy to do, while you run from the argy, go past a corpse (it will also eat another argy corpse which is useful) and when it harvests the body it will have effects on its head. This means it’s in Rapid Regeneration, knock it out quick while this is happening. Then when it’s out, it will have no food and take instantly. Now you have an argy!

Argentavis: All you need to know

The Argentavis, or argy, is a tanky arial that is favored in many ways among survivors. Having the body of a giant eagle and the head and neck of a vulture, the argy is a truly unique and amazing creature. Argys can carry a larg multitude of items at more efficient amounts. Especially stones and obsidian. Some have even made their Argentavis’ saddle a mobile smithy. Being rather slow, argys best used for carrying large loads of goods, rather that just travel. They do have good stamina in the air and the ability to heal themselves when eating fresh carcasses, so some do disagree. To tame one of these magnificent birds, it’s best to use a trap. Simply lead a unsuspecting argy into a closed box trap, and then tranqu it from there. They are carnivores, so feed an argy meat and mutton to earn its trust. To kill an argy you can use a large, tanky mount, or another flyer with high melee. Shotguns are also a good tool to use against these things. This is all for today but I hoped this helped you in any way.

If you ever encounter one in the wild, and you are in an early stage in the game, run the opposite direction. Also try not to agrovate it unless you are up to the KO/Fight.

Good luck if you encounter it!

I knocked out lvl 129 (while hunting it i died twice, once becouse alfa raptor) almost lost my own argy

AND THEN 2 SMALL DISGUSTING MICRORAPTORS KILLED HIM. I HATE THEM
