Extremely effective for resource gathering. After you get a Pteranadon, taming an Argy is your next priority.

To tame an Argy, I highly recommend prime meat, but just regular meat will do. If it's a high level you can build a trap, but if your a real man like me, you can go up against it face to face

Do not use an Argy for flying distances. Argys are terribly slow and are made for resource gathering. Do the traveling with a pteranadon.

Me and my friend have about 50 of these from breeding. Just tamed 2 and let them breed. Eventually grew into an air force stronger than the US army, when combined with wyverns. We are going to try them out as a giga killing squad! Up if we should

While they may be intimidating at first, the Argent is fairly easy creature to tame. Get three wooden dinosaur gateways and two gates and place them in a straight line, only leaving spaces big enough for a human to fit through and close one of the gates so it can't follow you straight through. Jump on your other flyer, be it a pterosaur or even another argent borrowed from someone. Lure the agent a couple of feet away until shes lined up just right and then sprint off behind the gate. Jump off your flyer and wait till shes in the trap, then run around and close the gate. After you check the area, tranq away and soon you'll have your very own argent

There are two traps for getting an argy trapped.

4x stone dinosaurs gateframe

2x reinforced dinosaurs gate.

The a other is the best because is really cheap. Look ok youtube "captain fat dog argentavis trap" its the best trap for argy, plus is 3 times cheaper

The reason rexes have a tek saddle is that rexes are famous. Same with megalodons and all the other things that have tek saddles. But really, let's be honest, almost nobody has tek saddles. You have to complete a hard dungeon to get a blueprint, or pay big bucks! At least those are the two ways i know of. Im on mobile btw. Really, argy's and spino's should get tek saddles, (you can find more info on argy tek saddle idea in argy, somebody left a tip about it, it has lots of likes so it's at the top too.) Because they're REALLY useful tames to have, in my opinion. I actully on two of each. Im going to put this tip in argy, spino and rex, so you will see it there. Please ^ if you want argy's and spino's to get tek saddles!

Can pick up things in it’s talons, AND it’s beak

I was taming a level 135 on mobile, and ran to get some wood, and it disappeared. It was because of a stupid mobile bug. This is the second time it’s happened to me.

These are the best tame in the game

HOW TO GET IT TAMED FAST! First get soothing balm! You can do this by going into any cave and grabbing the artifact! You don’t have to make it out the cave alive btw! Then tribute so you get rewards but before you do! Save curent game then tribute, so that way you can get easy soothing balm by restoring if you dies t get it! Easy words for this is: get balm by saving game then tribute and restore game until you get balm! You can also just save game in caves to not fight monsters, because when you save they go away! And if you want to be safe then use ur camera to look through the ground and walls withougt having risk! TADA now you can cheEEAt with minimal effort to get rewards and amber if your lucky when you tribute! MAKE THE ARROW POINT TOWARDS SOMETHING ABOVE YOU IF THIS WAS HELPFUL! also you need some raw meat to feed it, and the purple balm. By:Just your fellow helper

How to tame and utility:Usually found in ‘cold’ areas of the map Argentavis have weight reduction on Metal,Organic Polymer and Stones.

To tame take some sort of flyer to the outskirts of the North Zone.From there wait for 1 of them to enter rapid regen (eating a corpse/dead body) as then they will consume food extremely quickly (at most 1 minute to fully tame)

This is the best thing you can get in ark. It can transport items and dinos really good for attacking me and my friend have just got a level 124 one and a 54 one and we killed an alpha raptor in 2 minutes XD

So I was taming this lvl 140 female argie, checked it stats, saw the level 140 argie has 1950 stamina, double checked it, typed it in stats calculator and dude, 77 points in stamina?! that's unrealistic but it's real, i hope i can submit photos

Argentavis are your best friends when it comes to ark, as they are helpful in so many ways such as harvesting meat, taming other creatures & so much more.

They can pick up medium sized creatures and even have a healing ability when harvesting a dead body (only happens when your riding the argentavis or when your argentavis eats a body by itself.)

Argentavis also have a weight reduction of a lot of resources such as metal, obsidian, crystals and much more. Argentavis can also go long distances if you put points into stamina, they may not be the fastest flyer but I'd rather carry stuff in my Argentavis's inventory than running from a pack of raptors on foot.

And on top of all that, argentavis can be extremely tanky when it comes to combat, they have high damage and a lot of health.

When u encounter it make sure no bad Dino is there or the Dino will kill it when u knock it out

You can normally outrun an argie but still try and keep your distance

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.

Where flak and run around in circles while shooting at it. Super easy tame

Fun fact: just like the castoroides saddle their saddle is also used as a smithy.

Anyone else think it would be cool if there were alpha argies so we could have alphas on the land sea and sky?

Just shoot with tranqs and if it gets too close run away, they fly really slow
