Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a argentavis? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a argentavis.
To easily knock it out just use tranq arrows and to get meat get prime meat by getting a shotgun any type and kill a rex for me i use my ascendant pump-action shotgun to kill rex
To those who thought that the instant tame acctually instant tamed it with zero reascources:it just reduces the time needed for taming greatly by causeing its hunger to decrease more rapidly, so you still need annd the other reescources for taming it
Don't tame it with stego kibble unless you have two kibble cause on a lvl 3 stego kibble will only get it to 87% if you do at least bring soothing balm OR prime meat do it for me i wasted stego kibble and only got it to 87% and had no soothing balm or prime meat and i watched its taming drop
You don't even need a trap for these guys. Just aggro one and shoot in the head and boom easy tame.
You have to run they are pretty slow
USE NORMAL CROSBOW TO KNOUCK THEM IN MOBILE!! IF YOU USE MASTER CRAFT OR JOURNAMEY IT WILL KILL THE ARGY!!! I just killed one level 200 female for this
Don’t tame in the snow unless u have a trap/spikes because the ice place is rlly dangerous
Instead place a trap near volcano and trap the argy then cover it with spikes
HOPE THIS HELPED!
Kill something nearby the argie you want to tame and wait for it to start eating, then as it starts to eat the thing you killed knock it out with tranq arrows. Feed meat and using this method we didn't even need narcotics

(Big thank you too my friend)
Wheres this spawns? Bcuz i dont see any 🤔
You don't even need a trap, you can just run around in circles while shooting it. You can always use a net gun for an easy tame .
Dont use a wooden gate on the argy if you aren't going to tame it for a while. They can break wooden structures
Get prime meat, get to a vantage point, spray tranq darts, give dat boi narcotics, EZ
ULTIMATE GUIDE TO TAME A ARGY
1- find a argy (try find a argy on redwood Mountain or artic biome)
2- shoot tranquilizer arrows OR tranquilizer darts on the argy
3- feed the argy
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.
Quick and easy taking steps on the island
1 fly to the volcano on a weaker flyer
2 Place three Dino gates wood or preferably stone for higher levels
3 find a high level Argentavis
4 lure it into the trap and place a Dino gate in the farthest gate from the argy this might not work first try and keep your weaker flyer away from the argy(s) or cryopod it
5 when it flys in place a gate behind it in the first gate so the argy is trapped now tranquilize it then get some prime meat from nearby stegos Rexs carnos or paracers diplos and brontos if you are uses normal meat bring the narcotics you probably won’t need it for prime but I’m not sure I only tamed a highest of 140
If you get one to follow you on a pt just lead it to the top of a mountain get of pt and shoot at it ez

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
