What is a argentavis used for? argentavis utility tips and strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This big chicken is, besides being KFC’s dream, by far the #1 tame for many maps. You just can’t do without. They have a 50% weight reduction on stone, metal, obsidian, black pearls, polymer and cristal and can carry most gathering dinos like doedicurus and anky.
Not just that, but they have a fairly decent melee damage and good health, so you are way safer on those than on a ptera or tapejara.
The only downside is that they are slower, but when you get used to it it’s not that big of a deal.
You don’t want argy, you NEED argy.
After reading some of these comments, I was really excited to finally ride an argy. Once I was able to craft the saddle, I put it on my argy. I started to flying around and as some comments stated that they’re slow, they were right, slow flyers and when argy are carrying creature they tend to be on top of the argy allowing the creature to attack if it’s wild. I do not know if that’s only me but if it’s just like that they should probably fix it. Those two are the only down side of an argy besides that everything is great, really good stamina great for carrying/transporting resources and animal as long as you’re careful.
