This isnt really a Taming Tip tho it is a Good tip. If your trying to hatch a Argy egg or just any egg But dont have a Ac Unit then go to the snow area(This Only works if there is a snow area Like on the Island) And set up a little campsite there(Kinda like a small house or base) and fill it with campfires. Light all the campfires and the Egg wont be to hot. This might not be for everyone but it worked for me

Easy to tame female

Knocked it pretty quickly

So you went to the snow biome or carnivore island to tame an argentavis but your problem is that there is too many hostile dinos in the area where you found the argy you want. Well there's an easy solution. Just lure it away from that dangerous place and bring it to your base. They start to attack you once you get too close so use this to you advantage. Make it aggro and get it to follow you, use a pteronodon in doing this. You don't have to sprint while flying on your pteronodon as the argy's sprinting speed is the same as a pteronodon's walk speed (while flying). Then bring it where it's safe and knock it out with tranq arrows. Then just feed it with either normal or prime meat and wait, make sure you have narcotic so it doesn't wake up. Congrats you have tamed an argy and you didn't have to watch one of your tames die to a random carnivore.

Use traq arrow slowly if its not a a good level like 1-20

Tip for new players - argentavis are good flyers and they can carry 60% of dinos in ark island and best way to tame them is to first have a good health mount more then 2k health and u can use weapons on them and keep shooting them until they run and when they run u can even use longneck rifle now or u can just sit on tapejara and set argy its target and keep hiting it till it gets knock like i tamed 4 argy in my early 60 days with a 4k health sarco and after 27 days i had a op argy mutation they are good and best mount until u tame Griffins

Really easy to tame since a level 30 takes 8 tranq darts. It’s saddle is a mobile smithy. They do commonly spawn near the mountains, in the redwoods and in the snow. Just be careful if your doing mountains because Gigas can spawn. I find Gigas at Fars Peak

I recommend making a trap with dinosaur gates, for the high level ones. I tamed a 130 like this

If you have one of these get a raft, build a taming pen on top and a space for landing and you have yourself a good portable taming base for anything it can pick up. I've tamed loads with this. It's easier than flying all the way to base or making several taming pens at different locations.

The Lord of all Birds..has saved me more times than can count. Very noble and magnificent creature and can haul the weight of the world on its wings. To tame just build a bird cage as tall as a stone gate way (not behemoth) and about 4 foundations size. Remember to put a ceiling and the walls should be just door frames not solid walls so you can escape after you lead it into the cage. Then once its in the cage and you escape through the door frame, go around to the front of the cage and close the door. Once trapped it just takes about 30-45 well placed tranq arrows to the head or body and it will be KO'd, even level 150. Get some raw or prime meat to tame it. You may want to leave the area for about 15 -18 minutes and then return once you found enough prime meat to feed it.. since it would be hungry by then and ready to eat. Its torpor drains very slow so dont worry about narcotic.

Dude I LITERALLY TAMED IT WITH only raw meat ( first you have to kill any animal near it and when it will release green aura you have to tanq it it will take max 6 to 7 arrows if it is low20 to 30 then when it knocked out then put all of raw meat you have the wallha you have a argentravis in few seconds

Like so your argy can have good luck

When the argy is almost knocked out (like before it runs away)

Kill small Dino (raptor, dodo, etc.) and drag body to arge, the arge will eat it and gain the health buff thing and it’s food will rapidly decrease, this helps with tame time!

I also go to carnivore island to tame because of all the raw prime and arge

Find a healing one knock it out and feed it and a glitch will happen

And it go really fast

Build a trap don't mess around running and shooting

If you are trying to tame one kill a creature (parasaur) and traq it while it’s distracted by the body once granted I advise using kibble if your a late game player (or prime meat)

It’s pritty easy just get 6-40 tranq arrows and a couple a couple ptardon I used on and don’t forget narcotics to feed when it’s getting closer to wakeing up and 2-3 stacks of meat and bring the saddle for it with you(if you don’t have a saddle for it ride the ptardon back and put it on follow) and get off the ptardon and tranq it feed it meat and narcotic.

Location mountain.

Bring. Narcotics,tranq arrows, meat, arge saddle.

They are the PERFECT mid game tame. High weight and good attacker. No wonder they are what servers give away. How you tame is get your tranqs and shoot from afar. When unconscious feed prime meat. Btw other archys can drop prime meat. Feed until tame and vola! A good tame

Shoot it twice with a trang, then feed it a dead body of any type. Once the argy eats the body. Knock it out as fast as possible. Once it hits the ground put 3 stacks of raw meat in it. Then wait 1 minute. And you tamed yourself an argy

Heres a few tips about the argentavis:

1-If they eat any corpse, they will start rapidly gaining health.

2-They have a 50% weight reducement(is that a word lol) on metal ore, crystal or obsidian.

3-They can carry medium sized creatures, like an anky, raptor, or parasaur.

4-You can use these guys to farm metal with an anky, grab an anky with the argy and bring it to a location with lots of metal and start farming that metal with your anky.

I don't have to tell how good transporter they are but one advice for taming, make sure to keep dead dino nearby so it have its healing effect on while you shooting tranq, if it knocks out while in healing state, it will have less chance of dying and will have almost half food bar empty for quick feeding
