Encountering Tips
How do I kill a argentavis? argentavis battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Fact: real argentavis had the second largest wingspan of any bird in history only beaten by pelagornis, it was also actually a type of huge vulture and not an eagle.
They are slightly annoying big birds
Really common around Vikings bay on ragnarock

I had a level 230 Argy named Qrow. He and I would travel the skies together, he was my favorite... Until the one day when I was building him a special home. He watched me build it, but one night he was massacred by a wretched Theriz. Needless to say, I got revenge. Now he has a shrine. RIP Qrow.
Run or walk around in a circle and they will not be able to hit you, easy way to kill or tame.
MONSTER LOG
Argentavis
Behavior: Aggressive
The Argentavis is the bully of the sky. It is find on every map, but Abbreviation (I probably misspelled that). It is recognizable by it’s giant eagle structure, while it’s a giant vulture. It comes in pretty colors, but don’t be fooled, it will think your a McDonald advertisement Big Mac. Once tamed, it was but one of your most useful mounts. It has great energy and can kill medium dinos with ease. It also regains health fast if it eats a corpse, which make it a great battle bird. Not to mention the fact it can carry medium dinos in it’s talon and small ones in it’s beak. If you want to tame one, it was be worth your time.
HOW TO TAME
You will need: 5 wooden/stone dinosaur gateways, 2 wooden/stone dinosaur gateway doors, 1 crossbow/longneck, Tranq arrows/darts, and taming food (Mutton is recommended)
Pre-make the trap by spacing the gateways in a way so you can get out but the argy can’t. Add the doors.
I will be referring to the island for locations
First, go to the volcano and find the argy you desire
Second, get it’s attention by shooting it
Third, make it follow you into the trap
Fourth, shut the doors
Lastly, Knock it out and feed it the taming food
Happy taming!

I just tamed my first Argy and I'm wanting to go to the snow biome does anyone know if agrys loose control when Yutys roar?
Argies are great for attack from above to easly kill rexs but remember to still pump health becuase if you get stuck under your dead
Can’t wait to YEET a raptor off a cliff.
Can be found all throughout the snow, many parts of the desert, and even on the volcano. Very powerful flyers, don’t make them mad without a good weapon and mount
If encountered do these two steps
1.Bola friend
2.Run
When battling one of these try to break it's turn radius therefore they won't be able to hit you
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 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
Keep it at range trust me it has saved my life countless times
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 remember Encountering this in the snow biome there are literally so many of them that I started murdering them by a pump shotgun and a simple rifle including a assault rifle and then started massacre the heck out of them
Where flak and run around in circles while shooting at it. Super easy tame
Tbh with y’all, Argies are really cute and very easy to tame. All u have to do is knock it out using tranq darts (or tranq arrows) about 3-5 and then when they r unconscious js get sum meat and put it in him or her and it won’t take very long. And same with breeding, js get a female and a male Argie, set them both to wander, and when they r finished doing whatever they have to do, watch ur egg hatch! WARNING ⚠️: The egg can die if it gets too hot, so watch out for that and u’ll be fine. I’ve bred many and have 4 baby argies and 7 or 8 adult ones! Good luck taming and breeding 👍
A raptor attacked mine and yeeted the raptor into the sea
