How do I tame a argentavis? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a argentavis.
Real alien tame them with kiblle and knock them with trank arrows
These guys are really easy to find just go to very high terrain
Thank you so much for everything
These guys are the most useful and the most annoying creatures in the mobile version. I’ve tamed a few of them, you just need a few tranq arrows and plenty of meat. They’re most common in the northern half of the map but if you don’t enjoy freezing to death go to carno inland (the desolate chunk of rock in the north east corner of the map where nubs go to die) where there’ll probably be a few low level argys (that short for argentavis) flapping around. Just shoot one full of tranq arrows somewhere away from the usual carnage found in places on carno island. If you can’t get one to come at you kill something, a sabertooth should do the trick, and an argy should try to eat it, (and yes, the pesky vultures can and will try to steal your kills) they can smell corpses from far away. Hit /\ so nubs see. This is for the mobile version, made by choptamer. You can find me on the official server weathertop, unless you have a present for me stay away.
Use a metophiticus to tame a Argentavis. He will throw poo at him which will slow him down and will be very easy to tame :)
Arges are good tames they can pick up to a bary.so your in luck! They can easily pick up creatures.so you can just knock the dino out in the cage.you find in waterfall areas they also spawn near the volcano and also in forests. To tame make four gates each 5 inches from each other, and to gates in the back fly with a flying creature and go thru it the arge will follow and then close the gates.then just shoot thru the holes.the Dododex will tell you what it eats.
Taming is very easy, a lvl 21-ish got took down from the air with 2 tranq arrows, then I killed some Carnos for prime meat. Literally wasn't even a second and it was tamed. Gonna name her Freedom cuz shes just a big friendly eagle. Found in the snowy areas of The Island. Awesome tame to fly around with and kill Rex's, NEED TO HAVE HIGH STAMINA AND MELEE, YR BIRD MIGHT DIE IF U TRY THIS WITH LOW LVLS.
Xbows don't seem to get headshot damage, but I knocked one out using a regular bow and was getting headshot damage everywhere but the head. Knocked out a 135 with 15 arrows, where a 130 took 40 with an xbow. Both were 100% damage.
You don’t really need any narcotics.I tamed a 150 with prime using no narcotics on solo.
Wait can be carried by karkinos
Narc it up to 75% Torpor and check with the magnifying glass to be sure. Feed it a corpse(fish or dodo or smth), and as soon as it eats the corpse, narc it out! It will heal up and when its narced its food will drop 2000-4000(depends on how fast you narc it out). TADAA...instatame ;)
If you’re on PC then turn up taming stuff and put up hunger then just put a few pieces of raw meat in its inventory after you tranq it from the ground a couple times.
I used a tranquilizer bow and my partner use long neck we took turns shooting as it was hingry for me. Once it was KO we supplied it with raw meat and no berries or juice made a saddle right away and in my opinion best flyer so far
1x1 trap: Build one wood foundation, add two high doorframes on one side with ceiling on top, and finally one doorframe on each side. Lure argy in and place a final doorframe behind.
Build a Dino pen with 3 Dino gateways and gates, then make stone doorways, then make a roof and then tranq
Lure to taming box and tranq til flyes other direction then drop dead fish body and wait til health ring appears then knock it while health ring is over head, hunger goes all way down and makes it a 30 second tame.
Get it in a cage find a near by animal to kill drag the body over to the argie and knock it out while it has the green buff on its head it will knock out with 0 food and instantly tame. It’s advised to shoot it before you feed it the body or have help from a friend considering the green buff on their head is only a couple seconds long but definitely worth the effort
Do not try to bola it is a bad idea I mean a very bad idea
To tame just use a crossbow and keep shooting while having a friend agro it to you while shooting feed it raw meat and. Done
I tamed my first 160lvl argy inside a spike wall hedge. Then quickly ogled it up to lvl206 by “finding” knowledge notes while Mounted
