Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a argentavis? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a argentavis.
For a Quick and easy tame make a trap with three stone gate frames and two door and place them in a row and leave a space between the gate frames where you’re character can fit through and the argi can’t. Then lure the argi in to the trap and place the gates (you can also place the gates before and open them but personally I think it’s easier to place them when the argi is in the trap). Once it’s trapped use some sort of tranquilliser to almost knock it out, when it’s one or two shots from knocking out feed it a dead body so it gets the green healing effect and then knock it out. If done correctly it should be drained of food and insta tame with any sort of food but I recommend kibble or mutton.
It is easier than you think to tame. But it is costly. You are going to need to build a trap with four stone Dino gateways with a big enough gap for u to fit through lined up parallel creating a tunnel. On the two outside gateways are the only ones which you will need to place doors on. Open one of gateWay doors And lead the argie inside and run out the gap if you do not have tribe mates to help you close the door behind you you are going to quickly run out and around to shut the doors.
If u are new and make a easy server with settings that make everything easy, just need at the most 10 tranq arrows and this go does 100 level and below
--TAMING METHOD--
Step One: Make 4 wooden gateways and 2 wooden gates.
Step Two: Place the 4 gateways down in line one after the other like four archways making a sort of hallway. Leave gaps in between just small enough for your character to fit through.
Step Three: Place one gate on the gateway furthest fron your argy you wanna tame.
Step Four: Kite the argy until it is ready to fly into the trap.
Step 5: Let it fly in. (Allow it to hit you a few times. Its okay you won't die.) Place the gate on the outer gateway, trapping the argy inside.
Step 6: Run out and knock it :)
Your welcome.
If you wanna tame one of these bad boys just shoot it in the face about 3 times then feed prime (about 3) and enjoy your new argy! Also these are found in the redwoods or tundra.
So i start by getting normal meat crossbow with tranq arrows and bio toxin then i went to the redwoods on my pteradonon i i always tame low level dinos .so i hit her with my pteradonon lead her somewhere save get off my pteranodon and star shooting tranq arrows then i gave her meat when she started waking up i gave her a little of bio toxin and then waited until she tamed(btw im on mobile(
Jack of all trades really just depends what you want and how you build them. A bird for battle? You got it! Perhaps a super high stamina and weight to carry your anky or just be a mobile flying storage box/smithy with talons. Easy to tame 4 wooden dine gateways 2 doors, even a max lvl ain't breaking that. Just make sure you line the doorways up right and keep enough space to run out the side after closing the door but not enough for it to escape.
I built a trap with 3 stone dino Gates no one raft. Raft was not damaged, easy and relatively cheap portable argent trap.
Hunted for an Alpha Carno with my dire wolf pack, they killed him in less than one minute, easy prime easy argent.
They eat normal raw meat as well but much much slower
It easy to tame one of these beasts all you have to do is just tank it with a
few darts,It should be knocked out quickly just make sure you have a LOT
of narcotic with you
All you have to do is hop over to ragnarok get horse and lasso, lasso it and drag it to a taming pen
Run and shoot easiest way to do it :)
You don't need a trap to tame it just have a crossbow/rifle use traunqs.make the argie agro on your bird fly it into a safe area hope of your bird and shoot it on foot when it gets closer run underneath it to dodge and shoot it reapet and boom stuff meat in there and you will have a argie
You can easily tame it with a soothing balm and 20 normal raw meat
I used traq arrows to knock it out then feed it raw meat!
It's way better if you have soothing balm, Use that and, It's about 3-4 bites, THEN BOOM YOU GOT A ARGY
A direbear killed my bird
Then my mom deleted my ark game
Use wooden gates the argentavis does little damage
When knocking out,place 3 dino gates along each other but not connected. Place gates on each side and lure it in. Then lock the gates on each side so the argy is secure and then fire away with Frank's.😁
A trick I used early on in the game is with a paracer. Have it on pacive and stand under it. Most if the time the argie won't be able to fly under it, and even if it does it will be a while before it manages to again.
