Utility Tips

What is a argentavis used for? argentavis battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
So everybody is aware that sometimes something will attack the argy and if you have the argy in neutral, they'll take it on, sucks when your set up near the mountain and a wild argy attacks because you got too close or vice versa, so you see them in the sky fighting, your argy wins, now it's stuck in the air and not landing when you call it. Use a spyglass to look at him then command him to follow, this can work on any game that's yours. Argys are just the worst though.
Taming pen tip: put ceilings around the perimeter of the taming pen and an extra exit so you can easily get around and shoot down so you don't have to go down to the bottom of a pen to knock the dino out. Also, make sure to pump stamina, weight and a little health on your taming Argentavis!
Good for taming small animals aswell as killing large animals. You can drop something like a dire wolf in some kind of a taming pen whilst you shoot tranqs at it off your mount. You can kill things like rexes, but, don't attempt to kill Titianasurs or Giggas. Pump lots of points into health, stamina, and melee damage.
Due to the new tlc phase 2 that came out march 2018, the argy has a new saddle with a smithy, reduced weight capabilities and can hold two dinos at once (small dino in beak, normal sized in talons) but you can no longer carry procroptodons or castoroides but you can now carry thylacs. It also has a rapid health regen when eating meat
Excellent tame for early to mid game players, something you will want to use until you have wyverns, griffons, and quetzals.
Get stamina to 1.5k, health to 4k, and pump melee for an early alpha killer. Or pump stamina to chase that first quetz tame. Or boost weight for metal transport.
This is a good start for breeding as weight is affected by imprint percent and the bond makes it that much more lethal of an alpha killer.
