This really isn’t a hard tame. The Argentavis has a “Rapid Regeneration” after eating the corpse of a dead animal. It also has a 50% weight reduction (example: 1 raw metal was 1.0 lbs but is now 0.5 on the argentavis) on Metal, Crystal, and Obsidian!

You can unlock there saddle at level 62! It’s a long journey until you get to that level so tame a pteranodon just to get the hang of an argy!

(Unpatched December 2022) How to instant tame an argentavis eliminating the need for narcotics-

Equipment: Tranq arrows w crossbow (or anything else), standard 3 gateway argy trap, dead creature of any kind, this isnt exactly required but a magnifying glass is incredibly helpful

Method: Trap the argentavis and tranq it until it starts fleeing due to high torpor, drag dead creature into trap with argy and wait until it is eaten and it receives a healing effect. The moment the creature is consumed you must knock out the bird as fast as possible, the faster the better the effect. If done correctly the argentavis’ food should drop by multiple thousands allowing you to insta tame. Usually what I do on official is I get a vulture and make it harvest and store mutton (it lasts two hours on its inventory but it cannot be inserted there you must put it on aggressive and on your shoulder and harvest a dead ovis) and do this glitch and tame a few 130+ argentavis’ in 15-30 minutes.

How to tame an Argy:

Build a trap. You will need a stone foundation, stone doorframe (or fence posts), a stone hatch door, and stone fences. Build a two high tower with doorframes, then one on either side of the trap. Make sure you have space to get out!!! Seal those with a hatch ceiling on top, and stone fence supports on the sides. Now just lead the Argy to the trap. They are territorial so if you encroach too far on their space they will aggro. I recommend waiting for one to land to be safe. Make sure to lead the argy to your trap via the TWO-HIGH doorframes. It won't fit through the one highs and so will go around. Trust me, I know. Once its trapped, just tranq it up. If it escapes the trap, don't panic. Just hit it before it gets too high out of range. If you die, or your trap fails completely, that's okay. Just keep trying and make sure you have a base next to your trap for easy stuff retrieval after death.

Ok so , first step is preparation , you can get meat , prime meat or kibble (argentavis needs stego kibble) then you need to make a trap and for that trap you wil meed 5 stone dinosaur door frames and 2 reinforced dinosaur doors then you need to find an argy which want to tame then lure it inside your trap ( there are tutorial vids on youtube for building the trap ) then just knock it out with the tranq arrows and then use the starve method i which you need to knockout the dino and then let it starve (feed it things that will increase its torpor while knocked so it doesnt wake up while youre tying to starve it) then after it has starved feed it the meat or prime meat or stego kibble

And congrats You got yourself an argy now craft a saddle and explore ( argys reduce weight of metal, crystal, and organic polymer when it carries the stuff itself ) hope this helped 😁

I suggest a crossbow,narcotics(not the berries if u can get just normal narcotics),RARE FLOWERS MIGHT BE UR HERO unlesss ur on foot,get about 4 stone or wood dino gates place them infront of each other and make sure the 2 at each end has the door for it,then trap the argy inside,knock out your argy and there u go(if u have a balm great!)

Wanna know how to tame a argy i got u

————————————————————————————————

Step 1: go to redwood or places near by (walk there or use a ptera,to tame a ptera look in its section)

Step 2: find the argy u want,make sure u have tranqs,meat,narcotics or narco berries(argys take a while make sure u have a quite a few of each)

Step 3:once knocked if you have soothing balm that will help you a lot!

Step 4:enjoy your argy have fun with it,you’ll get to breed if you have 2 of the opposite genders(male & female),explore with ur argy and hope u get muts!

Hope this is helpful for someone

I know a lot of people know this but for the people that don't, when an RG eats a quart so he gets a healing buff that drains hunger quickly. Now I'm going to tell you how to use this to your advantage, when your RG starts to torpor run, kill small Dino that you can drag and drag it to your RG so that it eats it and then try to knock it out in the amount of time that it has its healing buff, around 20 second. Once you have knocked out your RG put your tanning food in and it will quickly eat it. because it's food is drained almost completely, if you aren't able to knock it out in this duration of time does timing method won't work.

I hope this was helpful

I breed Argentavis’s it’s pretty hard because they need a cold area for there egg so all you need is three Dino gates and doors then put them kinda near by then get them to fly right at you then lead them towards you and make them fly in the trap then you feed them meat and then wait for them to tame up then you have an Argentavis!I hope you liked my taming & Knock out tip😁

If you are midgame and need rcc get one. Weight reduction + flyer + good weight + doesnt get cold + carry and damage at same time for easy kills. Main downside is the speed (very slow) and the spawn location (inbetween 3 big mountains so allos, gigas, raptors, etc can interfere).

Easy trap:

-4-5 stone dino gateway in a line so that enough rom for you to fit but not argy

-2 reinforced dino gates on end of line of gates

-open 1 gate

-lure argy into trap on foot

-when argy is in run out through gaps in the gates

-close the open door

You are done but for starve taming:

-place sleeping bag

-sleep while argy is trapped (if argy is low health it might starve so maybe put some dead dodos or dilos in for heal effect)

Knockout tame with raw prime, kibble, or normal raw meat

I suggest using soothing balm for speedy taming

My level 150 argy (Olive) took like 5 seconds to tame with soothing balm and like 20ish meat after this method
