How ARK players tame and knock out the Argentavis: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

Once trapped in a dino gate trap, use tranq arrows carefully untill the argy starts trying to run, then throw a dead dino such as a dodo or monkey and let it eat it, then light it up with tranqs till its knocked out. When the argy is KOed its hunger will have diminished to a…

As of TLC Patch 2, the headshot modifier is no longer a thing, tested on multiple argues with all weapons.

Really useful but be prepared if you try to tame one

I was going to the mountain in the red wood forest when i saw a bunch of these birds. I was still new so i didnt know if they would try to kill me or not. I ended up tameing one about an hour later.

I recommend a pelagornis . Build a 2 wall high box with a T shaped hole and when its inside closed the hole and tranq it

I was easily able to tame a low level one in the redwoods. Let one attack your pteranodon and lead it to a tree platform. Tranqed it while it attacked my ptera and it fell asleep on the platform. Easy way to do it solo without a trap. Darts work best for knocking out quickly

It’s really slow but you can carry all most anything 🦅🦅🦅

It isn't hard to tame them in the wild but it also isn't easy. Lure the bird you want to tame to a taming area or pen. starving it like anything works best. Got mine or four prime meat. Level up stamina and health. Can't level up movement speed on PS4.

The calculator is wrong on 7x it only takes 2 raw meat

Worth making a stone taming pen raft, took no damage , also tamed a lv150 scorpion at the same time and drove home to finish the tame at my base in peace..lovely except it took forever without kibble...

Just stay in the very outside left of the map untill you reach the north, there should be a small penninsula, stegos rexes kentros scorpions and hyenadons seem to spawn there a lot as well, so be careful when doing this. Most of the time there's a war going on at that…

Use Tranq Darts, takes like 4 or 5 to knock out a level 145

Build a small cage to trap them because when they low they will just fly away

Go to the volcano on a pteranodon, then land on a ledge the just unload, don't worry they are quite slow

Great PVE mount since it can't be bola attacked and take more than 1 trans arrow from crossbow to knock out.

I recommend going to the snow biom as there are more argies and they are easier to find in an open space. Make a boat with a flooring 3x3 with a large Dino door and a normal non dragon door opposite it and walls and a ceiling to make a box. Lure the argie in and shut the dino…

Build a wooden or stone cage taming pen with Dino gate then lure into the cage and close Dino gate then tranq it out

Can not be bola'd. Relatively easy to knock out with tranq arrows. Shoot it once and get it to agro. Sprint away and shoot, repeat til it starts to run away, 1-2 more arrows should bring it down. Happy taming!

Find one of the hollow logs in redwood forest. block one entrance with pillars and leave your dino there. aggro argy and lead into the other entrance. while it tries to attack your dino block the open end. have fun using the taming pen the game made for you.

They're usually around mountains and I usually go to the top and lure one and tranq it there because I rarely ever see dangerous dinos
