How to tame an argentavis:

A lot of people like to build traps for this, but I just don’t get why

Materials:

A high level pt or another good health Dino if u have cryopods.

A bow or crossbow. Doing the hunt dilo mission will give u a good bow and I use it instead of crossbow.

40 tranqs is enough for crossbow

Process:

1. Find a high level argy

2. Feed it until full health with corpses

3. Use your tanky Dino to tank while you shoot the argy. If the argy’s about to die lead it to a corpse and it regens insanely fast.

4. Leave prime in its inventory. U do not need narcs but if u tame on normal meat then bring some narcs.

Uses:

Super useful weight reductions on I think metal crystal and other late game high tech stuff.

Carries medium-sized animals such as doedic anky and beaver so u can farm with them.

Has high damage and great stamina.

Looks very cool basically collect on the island.

Enjoy your argy!

So heres quick taming method on ark mobile you need 3 dino gateways and 2 dino gates put them in front of each other in a row and make a little place in beetwen for you or your tame to get out of that little place after you set up these thing lure the argy in there and close the gate you dont need kibble or prime meat(you can use them for extra fast tame) after you lure in the argy you have to shoot a few tranq arrows or darts(for fast tame)after torpor is half way full you put bed next to trap and sleep after you wake up knock out argy and put meat,mutton,prime meat, ect. And it will tame under 3 minutes you won't even need narcos or bio

I hope it helps ya

The insta tame does work BC I did it yesterday and half the food was gone

This is Basicaly a rite of passage tame one of the most nessecary tames for single player

also you can use wood gates for the trap if you need to save materials

In MOBILE this does NOT fut through the 1 x 2 at all!

Up so peeps can see

EASIEST WAY TO TAME AT ANY LEVEL:

Stock up on trans, 4 - 5 per bird, wait for it to land, walk an aim-able distance away, FIRE AWAY, when it comes close, run towards it while flanking from the side and from behind as it passes, you WILL take a foot or two, so be prepared to have SOME food handy for yourself.

They stay tranqed for a little over 30 minutes. Use that time to starve them whil you hunt some predator or big game to get some prime and VOILA!

I solo play and just tamed 5 Argen in one go. I am going to paint them blue and call them The Blue Angles. 😉

When taming, ALWAYS put wooden spiked walls, multiplayer or not. I HAD TO TAME AN ARGY 4 TIMES BC IT KEPT DYING😭😭😡😡😡😡😡

EZ tame just get tranq darts then knock it out feed it raw meat or raw prime meat and done you have argentavis

A common trap for Arial creatures in general is that you craft about 4 stone dino gateways, then place them in front of each other (so that it's just a straight row of gateways). The ones on the outside place a little farther away so that you can walk through the sides, then have gates on the outer gatways having one of them open so that the bird can fly in, once you find the bird of choice, kite it into the trap, go through the side space that is larger on the end, and quickly go round to the open gate to close it and now you have easy tame stuck inside your trap. (You can modify this if you want, particularly the size of the gateways for the bigger creatures and it can be used for terrestrial creatures too if you want)

Here's one of the best tricks in ARK MOBILE : If you sleep (with a bed or a sleeping bag), ALL the dinos in your render food bar will be set to 0 (when you make them unconscious, you can see that). After the taming process, the food bar will return to full again (no matter how much taming food you gave the dino). Thanks for reading

To that one dude who used ancient Amber's to buy soothing balms. Tip for you dude just go for the artifacts and do the save trick to manipulate the reward that the artifact tribute will give you to get 10x soothing balms

Using tranq arrows or darts does the job quickly. Try and get it in an open area and shoot it. It'll fly away when it's about to fall asleep. One tranq arrows while it's flying away and it should be knocked out.

When luring into a pen use a pelagornis instead of a pteranodon because they have better health

Imagine using Dino doors…

It’s a good strat tho

Argentavis

Temper: Distractive to Aggressive

Animal Temper: Docile (Passive, but if an animal attacks it, Aggressive.)

Info:

Argentavis has the second largest wingspan. Only few flying creatures rival it. Argentavis was a carrion-eater, meaning that it was a giant vulture crossed with a eagle and eats corpses with delight. It can be known for it’s massive wings and eagle like body. Argentavis can regenerate lots of health when eating a corpse, and has lots of weight. Lots of weight meant that it could carrie a lot of creatures.

Taming:

Recommended Knockout Choice: Tranquilizer Darts

Recommended Food: Raw Prime Meat

Recommended Narcotic: Narcotics

Traps: 4 Wooden or Stone Dinosaur Gateways and 2 Dinosaur Gateways. Make a gap between the gateways that are large enough for a human but not an Argentavis. Place 2 Dinosaur Gateways on the sides of the trap.

Knockout:

Find an Argentavis, usually with a flyer. Then, kill off any other Argentavis that you don’t want or any other carnivore that could interfere with the taming. After, get the Argentavis’ attention. Land your flyer at a distance between the Argentavis. Then, start shooting it with your knockout method. Really, it only takes a few Tranq Darts to knock it out. Now, feed it with your choice of food. It takes time, but it’s worth it.

Or,

Lure the Argentavis into the trap, then close the gateways. Knock it out, then feed it.

Recommended: Minor Soothing Balm, Narcotic, Flyer.

Hey don’t bother with traps just get tranquility dart and rifle or bow and tranquility arrows. Great tame. Just remember to keep other tames away or passive.

USE NORMAL CROSBOW TO KNOUCK THEM IN MOBILE!! IF YOU USE MASTER CRAFT OR JOURNAMEY IT WILL KILL THE ARGY!!! I just killed one level 200 female for this

they are not only found in mountain areas but on fjordur they are also found on balhemir island

This is for the guy up top with his how to tame guide. (No, I’m not trying to diss you.) You don’t actually need a stone gate. You can just use wooden ones, so long as you don’t leave him in there. Also, you only need three. That’s pretty much all, sport if I came off as kind of a jerk, but I don’t want people to waste their supplies. Good luck!

I found mine stuck in a rock so I shot it with tranqs with a crossbow in the head then broke the rock..so yeah
