What are tips for argentavis? Tips and strategies for argentavis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Literally just kite a high level one into a trap and tranq it until it sleeps. Then pump it full of parasaur and divebomb a low level brontosaurus for prime meat to make it go faster. Congrats, you've conquered Ark.
Find one on the side of the volcano and have it agro onto you. Land on a safe area of the mountain and shoot it with tranq arrows or darts. They don’t do much damage if they’re lower than 75 so just let it hit if it gets close and keep shooting it. When it’s knocked out feed it some raw meat or better and it’ll be tamed in no time
For anyone on controller I wanted to not if you take the argie your taming in the crater it has lava and other things so it may not be super viable.
Just go to the big mountain on the island or on other maps look for tall natral things like big sand mountain for scorched earth
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!
Hello it’s ken. You can tame a low level argy if your a beginner in a server, you should probably bring a crossbow and 10 tranqs and listen wasting materials on a trap is not worth it.
With crossbow you only need like 5 or 4 trans arrows. But bring 10 in case. Saddle unlocks at level 62 if you want to ride it, and it’s a very helpful tame although not very fast but can hold a lot of weight
Kill something and lead the argy to the thing you killed and let it eat the thing you killed and while its healing make it unconscious it would tame faster if the argy is healing but it would be really hungry at the time.
Definitely recommend trap taming for these guys if not when they get torpor they just fly away you can also take not just with tranques but with a slingshot. If this helps like it
In reallity, its really easy to tame.
1: Do the tipical cheap trap.(Watch a video if you don’t know the trap).
2: Close the door and its trapped
3: You can knock it with arrows, darts…But the cheapest option is throwing it the boomerang.
And you have now an argentavis.
If you have a mid level pteranodon you can jump off and shoot it with tranquilizer arrows then hop on ride it a little then hop off and shoot it, do this acople times and he will be knocked out.
Get four gate ways and doors than lead the rg in than close the door and shoot it with darts find some prime meat and when you look its hugarey will decress feed it prime meat and there a new rg or first
Tamed mine with in under 20 minutes with 3 tranqs and a stack of regular raw meat. Console
You dont rlly need narcotics but i recommend using them just to be safe
