Utility Tips

What is a argentavis used for? argentavis utility tips and strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
In my opinion, Royal Griffins are cheap Argy's. I mean, they're way harder to tame, you have to deal with that respect crud, and they don't even deal as much damage. Also, they all pretty much look the same, while with Argy's you can get a varied colour palette. Argy's can also carry more creatures, too. The only perks of a griffin are: 1. Prestige. 2. They can glide 3: You don't need a saddle 4: You can fire from their backs 5: They're multi passenger. But, is all that worth staring at a screen for, like, 6 hours?!? With an Argy, you can just hold a second player in it's talons, and that's multi passenger, and that player can fire, too. I'll also be posting this in Argy and Royal griffin, too. One like = One respect for Argy's!
These are literally the best tames in the whole game.
50% weight reduction on metal, crystal, and obsidian
Good health, weight, stamina, and attack damage
Their saddle is a smithy
Good at gathering meat and hide
Quick to knock out and tame
Gets a health and stamina regeneration boost when you eat a body
Can pick up two creatures at a time, one in the beak and one in the claws
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if someone found out they can shapeshift into a giga
These big birds are one of the greatest dinos in all of ark they are great for obsidian, metal and crystal runs on the biggest mountains. Try to tame a high level as you can get better stats (that’s pretty obvious I know). The main stats you should upgrade mainly for material runs is weight to carry for things, stamina so you don’t have to keep stopping for rest, and movement speed so you can have multiple runs of materials if you don’t want to upgrade weight.
Thanks for reading hope this is helpful
Y'all,
Please God, TAME THIS THING!!!
All of you ptera users need to fly your butts over to the ice biome and tame this boy. He only needs tranq arrow for knockout tame too. He has weight reduction of obsidian and I think metal, and since I got a good health one I'm rocking 16 health and 650% melee. You can literally just fly up to the top of the map or even let it tank while you shoot something. This was by far my most useful tame on island and scorched. I just take this guy and he Carry's my ankylo and go to the mountain area, and we bring back like 1200 metal each time. So please please please use an Archie 🙏🙏🙏
