Not really any argy tip but I used Argys in breeding, if you cryo the babies you dont want and find something you want to tame ex. Rex or a higher lvl argy, after you knock out your new dino, toss the babies out and slaughter them for prime meat that doesn't spoil as fast.

How to tame an argy.

Go right outside the arctic

Place 2 Dino doorways right next to each other

Put doors on them

Go find the argy you want and make it Agro on you

Run to your doorways

Open the first door and go in between

Wait for the argie to follow, when it does…

FYI they eat prime meat jerky

I recommend as it does quite a bit and lasts longer than prime meat but not as effective as prime meat

I always get WRECKED by these things... then I learned if you make a harpoon launcher and net projectile you can net the argy, shoot shoot, tame it up with ZERO damage and you don't have to try and set up cumbersome traps!

the best dino in the game aka the argy needs to be tamed but it is really fast so build a stone metal or tek trap.

If you use prime meat you will tame it 75% faster then normal meat.

You need about 2x4 gateways with enough doors for them then you fill up the top with roofs and you get to follow you in there

Trapping them is best with 4 stone dino gate,three close to each other and one slightly more apart so you can get out,plus 2 reinforced dino gates,lure it in,then close doors and tranq. Make sure to check the area around you,their spawn points are quite dangerous.

An easy trap method place 4 dino gates and have a gap between 2 that's just big enough so u can slip out put gates on the 2 outer gate frames open the gate u wish to lead the argy in once the argy is in the trap close the opened gate and quick and easy tame awaits ! Happy…

When you knock this bird out other argentavis are a great prime meat source!

These things have amazing weight! If you level up their melee damage to over 1,550 I think around 400-500 dmg it could kill a wyvern. But play it safe and with a partner on another argentavis. But make sure to single out the wyvern.

YOU GOTTA GET ONE OF THESE GUYS get a crossbow or longneck rifle with tranq darts or arrows. Find one separated from a group and shoot it from there. They aren’t very fast so you should be able to outrun it when it gets too close. When it’s knocked out, start putting meat…

On ragnorok if you want to quickly ko an argy build a argy trap with gateways stone for unlimited use wood for cheaper and get 5 boomerangs and use them on it, argies cant survive boomerang to ko naturally so if it is low on health bring it a corpse, however sometimes it runs…

You can fish for an argentavis saddle blueprint with a fishing rod.

Easy early game tame to flying.

This is a must do for brutal mode players(Mobile)

Due to how slow XP goes up

The only way that a level one can wake up on mobile while your taming is if your using fish and just 1 narcoberry
