Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a argentavis? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a argentavis.
I have just recently tamed one of these thing and they are ridiculous! Step one: if you are a high level get a long neck with tranq darts if you are a low level get a crossbow or a normal bow and get about fifteen arrows for taming. If you know where a snow area is than go there, but if you don’t than listen there is a peninsula that has a spino spawn as you get to a higher level once you are in the center of the peninsula (not in the water at the forest line) you will head up and go LEFT but do NOT go inland on the rivers just follow the coastline I recommend getting a few raptors or a baryonix because you might need to defend your unconscious argy once you are in a sighting distance from the snow you might see an argy or two flying around. But whatever you do there is one danger to this taming scorpions and hiuenas I recommend not attacking those and from a distance shoot at the argy and lure it away from the hiuenas and the scorpions and then nock it out. Me and my friend used two cooked prime meat to tame this however it was a level one it was still awesome. ATTENTION PLEASE READ AFTER TAME head back to the peninsula but before you go to fare down the coastline there will be a massive tree with two stone arches with and explorers note if you have a saddle ride your argy onto the not and my lvl one got eight levels and we beefed him up our character even got an entire level even though we are like level eighty if you liked this tip please tap on the arrow pointing towards the sky

So to make a argy trap that I think is best is make 4 dino gates made of stone and not behemoth then make 2 reinforced doors then once u do that then place the dino gates 1 foot away from eachother then place the 2 reinforced doors at the end and run through there with argy run through the side and close the back door boom u got a argy
Easy to tame if you know what you’re doing! I pteranodon and hit the level 20 argentavis. I got to a high car place and shot tranqs at it while it was chasing us. About 5 tranqs later it knocked out.
All I typically do to tame it is that I just sit on a good level stego with hardened plates and shoot it with a longneck and some tranq darts.
Worked on a 135 arge with primitive longneck
Just took a few extra darts as I missed a few times as it was flying away
Then just go collect some prime meat and feed it narcotics when needed.
there are cheats to get this animal you can find them on YouTube.
This will probably be the easiest way first of all if you want get a high lvl argentavis wild kill a couple of thing and knock it out while healing this will cause its hunger to deplete to 0 and you can tame it fast
just know your gonna have to defend ur argy while it’s in the trap, and if using crossbow with tranq arrows, it can easily be killed with it, so time ur hits with the crossbow.
Captain fattdog has a cheap and easy to build trap. Also feeding an argy just before you knock it out drops its food by alot
I need an argie for getting another wyvern egg but I don't know where they are lol
You can put an argie trap on a raft for ludicrously easy taming. Just remember to build it off to the side a little.
You can make a trap by puting five gate way and puting a door in the first one and in the last one. Then you make him follow you into the trap and you close the doors. You can get out of the trap by the spaces between the gates. And you just tame it in the trap.
If you have a trap(one with a ramp into and dinogate out) put temporary roofs on top and lead in through dinosaurs gate(be sure to close it once its in) then tame at your will.
Use a bow. First one fully charges Rhen shot many not charged until it flees and hit it whit fully charged arrow. It works for me in creative.
I knocked him out, it only took like two tranq arrows. So freakin’ proud of myself!
The insta tame method doesn't work anymore, I tried may 11th 2020 and I did exactly as said and it didn't work. It was a female lvl 65 and when it was knocked out it stayed asleep. I even waited until it woke up and she wasn't tamed.
Just tamed one today on console sooooo hhhaaapppyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do not need much narcotics but good meat
Never try to knock out these guys at a beach, they will fly over the water and when you do knock ‘em out, they end up drowning.
Easy to tame no trap required unless it’s high level get your tranqs and keep aiming for it when it comes close run back they fly pretty slow then stego kibble
Argentavis’s are carnivores so make sure you have a good amount of meat on hand. Prime meat is preferred. Make sure you have a tape jars tame so you can mount on the wall and then shoot the argentavis. Make sure the argentavis isn’t around any bigger carnivores like carnotaurs or rex’s. Once tamed, take your creature home and make the saddle so taming is so much easier as you now have a creature to pick up Baryonixs and smaller creatures so you can make a taming pen
