So i was looking for a rex for trex arms for my wall mount then i saw a LEVEL 110 ARGENTAVIS up if i should tame it down to murder it without mercy

How to tame a argy easy

-a good tame (something can easily make a kill)

-harpoon launcher with net projectiles

-a carcass

- and any form of tranquilizers (I use a compound bow towards end game, but darts work as well!)

1. Find the argy or argys you want

2.kill something near or below (argys will come down to scavenge it!)

3. Net it while it’s harvesting the kill

4.shoot it till it drops

5. Put the food in the inventory

6.voila you have an argy

I don't know that why do people build costly traps when u could simply do this?

U can simply outrun em then shoot an arrow run again shoot an arrow and then itll just become unconcious feed him meat /prime meat / kibble and boom u got the argy

1-2 tranq darts in head and he’s knocked, go get some meat and kill some of those jellyfish and get bio toxin then put the bio toxin in it and feed it until the argies hunger is on 1000 or less then put all your meat in it

Fly Safe

If you want to tame one in a safe area, aggro it with a pteranodon (because they are faster fliers than argents) and lure them to a safer area

ex. Empty Beach area. Be sure the argent is close behind you by flying slowly and when it gets a little too close, speed fly a bit then slow down, this also saves stamina. The argent might lose interest every so often but then just turn back and aggro them again. Once you reach the area, land the pteranodon, let the argent get close and tranq it

If you build I trap with four Dino gateways and on both sides put door you can trap them as long as you lead them in a close the door behind them. After that search up how many tranqs it’s gonna take to knock it out then do like 3 less then that amount. Afterwards bring a dead body to it and let it eat it. Once it’s done eating it should have a green aura then you knock it out. This makes it so it’s food drains faster.

If you want to tame one instantly it can be pretty easy to do, while you run from the argy, go past a corpse (it will also eat another argy corpse which is useful) and when it harvests the body it will have effects on its head. This means it’s in Rapid Regeneration, knock it out quick while this is happening. Then when it’s out, it will have no food and take instantly. Now you have an argy!

Argentavis: All you need to know

The Argentavis, or argy, is a tanky arial that is favored in many ways among survivors. Having the body of a giant eagle and the head and neck of a vulture, the argy is a truly unique and amazing creature. Argys can carry a larg multitude of items at more efficient amounts. Especially stones and obsidian. Some have even made their Argentavis’ saddle a mobile smithy. Being rather slow, argys best used for carrying large loads of goods, rather that just travel. They do have good stamina in the air and the ability to heal themselves when eating fresh carcasses, so some do disagree. To tame one of these magnificent birds, it’s best to use a trap. Simply lead a unsuspecting argy into a closed box trap, and then tranqu it from there. They are carnivores, so feed an argy meat and mutton to earn its trust. To kill an argy you can use a large, tanky mount, or another flyer with high melee. Shotguns are also a good tool to use against these things. This is all for today but I hoped this helped you in any way.

Simply side step the talon attack like a bull fighter then as she lines you up again take the beak shot ... rinse and repeat

For your first, the Northeast Shores, there are a few that spawn there but beware of Rexes, Allos, Carnos and Raptors, also the beach head along the northwest coast, just short of the snow biome. Other than that, they spawn on mountain tops - but that's more dangerous area.

Best advice: Tame a pteranodon first. Kite the prospective Argie to a safe location and into a trap. Tranq with a crossbow (bow can kill) and tame with prime meat, mutton or kibble.

Argie traps:

1. Trapper Raft. Must have ceiling and two doors. Pros- can be sailed close to location and tame on water away from potential threats. Cons - initial investment of time + material.

2. Dino Gate trap.

4 stone gates placed sequentially half a foundation apart with doors on first and last. Lure into the trap on ptera and close gate behind you, dismount, close 2nd gate. Cons - exposed to smaller predators during taming. Use spiked wall perimeter.

Use stone, can destroy wood/thatch.

I knocked out lvl 129 (while hunting it i died twice, once becouse alfa raptor) almost lost my own argy

AND THEN 2 SMALL DISGUSTING MICRORAPTORS KILLED HIM. I HATE THEM

hardest part of taming an argy is the location. keep an eye out for rexes, allos, and other argys while the one you're taming is out

This has been said before but I'm writing it a tad differently than top comment, this is the method I use in solo play. These are a very easy tame if you have any type of fabricated weapon. Find an Argy that's away from the group, aggro it, then kill something else with a sidearm or assault rifle while it's attacking you, get near the dead body and when it attacks you (and hits the carapace) it'll get green health buff above it's head.

Knock it out and it's an insta tame.

Ok so if you wanna tame one and it's in a group here's what you do. So because they only Argo to you if you hit them or come to close but if you stay just out of arho range they kinda just path on the you and slowly follow you so when you attack them the others wont attack you

Trap it sleep near it (single player) then knock it. Easy tame with only meat and little narcotics (for higher levels

Found commonly on the dead island to the far northeast of the map me and my tribemate crafted a raft and set sail to the dead island from the southern islets it only took a few minutes before we got there my tribemate ran of to get some red treasure while I tamed the argy it was super easy I just shot it with my gg tranq arrow (mod easy taming) fed it some meat and boom bada boom it was tamed unfortunately our raft got destroyed so we had to make another one after that we had our argy! More about easy taming adds gg tranq arrow rapidly increases torpor and drains food available at level 1 for 0 engram points!

I know normal raw meat works as well, but prime meat at least triple's the speed of their taming. I tamed a level 150 today and it took 3 pieces of raw prime meat to tame it. Hope this helps you guys with taming!

You can instant tame an arg, just need to almost knock it out, and check its torpor with a magnifiant glass, stop shooting it and give it a dead body. Once the arg eats it, shoot it really fast while it has its healing buff. If it’s knock out and still has its buff, the food will drain super fast. GLHF!

How To make an argy trap

You need this following things.

x4 stone gate way

x2 stone gate way doors

Place the 4 gate ways in a file make space in between the gaps so that you can go though. Place the 2 gate doors on each side. Leave one open and lure the argy in the trap ( try to take some hits so it does'nt lose interest). Once the Bird is in slip though the gaps that you made. go to the opened gate doors and close it as fast as you can. Ta da there your trap.

Extra. Try to shot at it from a range it can't attack you. Make sure that theres no bad things beat it. Chose a safe spot to tame. If you are confused go search. How to make an argy trap.
