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.

MOBILE Argy trap (also works for ROYAL griffin, tested on both):

Takes 4 stone gate frames, one reinforced gate, and 3 stone pillars. Pick a spot that is flat and also away from any predators, including compy and dilo. Face going the same way you plan to fly them in, so that…

Fun fact: If you have an ascendant 305.4dmg crossbow it take four tranq arrows for a lvl 140

To trap team do three or four dinosaur gates in a row close to each other and at the end to place the doors to the gates

Best method in my opinion:

Get a flyer such a pterodon but a tappy would be better.

Get a decent crossbow or a primitive longneck. Shoot with tranqs and feed food if your choice

I tamed a level 20 by accidentally starve taming it. I had shot it with all the tranqs needed, but I was running, so by the time it went out it was on top of a big rock, forcing me to build a that structure and a ton of ladder up to it. Lol it tamed real fast once I got to it…

I personally prefer travelling to the mosh pit (On the western coast) and they are so easy to tame! You only need a crossbow and tranq arrows but if they are a higher level I’d recommend building a cage so that the don’t fly away where you can’t reach them (unless you are…

Make a pen 6x2 dino gateway and a couple of rows of doorsways (no doors),leave one wall tile out. Get Argi to follow you back to pen on pteranadon stop at pens gateway,wait for Argi to hit you fly out missing wall tile straight ahead (at a sprint speed otherwise you'll get…

Definitely must have tame when playing on The Island, get a decent one and you should be good for combat and transport.

YOO GUYS I think I just made up my own Argy trap randomly from meh brain :O Its cheap, it works well even on mountains.

I used this for trap testing:

1. A Stone Foundation

2. 2 Stone Ceilings

3. 4 Stone Railings

4. 2 Stone Pillars

After building the trap I got attention…

Argentavis can no longer be tamed using the starve method in which you activate the regen buff before you knock it out so it drains all of its food. It’s been patched my friends.

Bring it a dead animals, as then wild or tamed their food bar will start to drain. Knocking it out then after it has eaten something and still has the healing effect. They will have 0 food and will take very quick

If you want to tame one of these do the steps

1. Find a nice level you want to tame

2. Place 3 behemoth doors with no escape

3. Shoot with rifle

4. Place the door when it is inside the trap

5. Knock to out

6. Feed prime meat

7. Enjoy your new argy

This is for the ark mobile players (including myself) before taming anything I recommend sleeping in a simple bed before knocking out the creature you're gonna tame because it helps and I mean it HELPS alot with decreasing the food of the creature

Kill an alpha carno which can be found near the volcano and you get a bunch of prime mean, knock out the argy then bam give it all the prime meat and it’s so quick

If theres water nearby you dont need any traps or anything like that. Just keep going in and out of the water because the arge cant hit you if your in the water. (You can only use a crossbow because it can shoot underwater)

The saddle level should be lower. I am not a very skilled player and I could have been flying with one of these 20 engram levels ago

I just tamed up a boyfriend for my female argy and I named him striker all you need to do to tame one is get some tranq arrows and meat you only need nine arrows depending on it's level once it's nocked out just feed it meat and you have an argy up this if it helps.

Real people tame this on the redwood mountain with no trap and just fish meat and tranq arrows.
