They can now carry small WILD creatures in their beak ON PVE. dilos,pegos,otters,penguins,etc...

The weight of Crystal is reduced by a half

Pretty much an essential tame for all stages of the game... great for taming other creatures, killing, and resource runs. The argentacis will help you out tremendously.

Probably my favorite utility creature in the game, along with a trike. These things have high stam, weight, and respectable attack and health. Will up your taming game 10 levels by carrying many wild dinos into a good taming pen. Need to haul metal or stone from the mountains back to your base? Argy. In for the long haul, need to carry lots of supplies? Bam. Argy. My personal favorite tame, will make your life so much easier once you snag one.

“ Mine won’t breed, I got male and female gave female pheromone and they won’t breed. I rlly need help!” Did you enable them both on wander? That’s how you breed. I’d suspect (I’ve never worked with pheromones before) it’s the same no matter how much pheromone you give them

A well bred argy can take down wyverns! Get a high level imprinted argy and attack the shoulder of the wyvern until it dies. Its turning radius is rather poor so it will have trouble hitting you with its breath.

Notice:

*Poison wyverns may simply kill you right off the argy with their poison spit.

*Ice wyverns may slow you down and break free of the shoulder attack.

*I have never attempted this against crystal wyverns, their turning radius is smaller so your results may vary.

*Do not attempt against multiple wyverns at the same time.

Can carry ankys, doedecs, and other super gatherers, go to the more section for further detail.

the weight of metal is half on argy

Great for trips to the Arctic regions because of their organic polymer weight reduction

I have no idea what the game meant when it said you can’t pick up a baryonyx with an Argentavis. You can, it’s just the Bary obscures you vision. But if you use 3rd person camera, you can carry Baryonyxes!

Best ob farmer ever! Got me a rifle (the ar) and the mega shotgun

When about to fight a big dino kill a small creature near by and eat when your argent is on low health

A jack of trades this one, good weight, health, and stamina. Can carry metal at greatly reduced weight, flies at an average speed. I recommend.

Since the recent update Argentavis are now able to pick up Ankylo and Doeds, making them extremely useful for early game farming.

Unique Features That The Argentavis Has:

1. Can pick up creatures in their claws and smaller creatures in their beak

2. Saddle acts as a smithy and also holds more than a smithy

3. They have 50% weight reduction in…

- Stone

- Metal

- Metal Ingots

- Obsidian

- Crystal

- Polymer

- Organic Polymer

- Black Pearls

They take half weight for crystal,metal,obsidian and stone.

Most useful thing I’ve ever tamed. You know that feeling when your iron armor breaks and you have the stuff to repair it but you just don’t want to go all the way back to your base to fix it? That’s where these boys come in handy!

My argy can’t pick up wild dinos for some reason.

Whoever is the person who is sitting here. Call me and all this and didn't tell anyone that the bird can be a smithy as an ahole

This is a mount you should tame as early on as you can!! Amazing for metal a good easy spot is the rocks in ocean (Viking bay or any oceans)
