Most people say that they aren’t fast on land, they’re lying!!! Mine is the fastest sarco I’ve had, and I’ve gone through 4. Scar is a lvl 9, and was really easy to tame. I distracted him, knocked him out, then fed him fish meat and barely a half a stack of narcoberries. Once I got him, he changed my life. Up if the helped you!

Basically an Iguanadon but in the water. Without sprinting it's still faster than anything including an Icthy. Icthy's are quick but only at full speed. This thing has a high cruising speed and if you do decide to sprint, then the stamina refills almost instantly.

In my opinion it is the fastest mount to get around on the island. It's not that slow on land either at dull speed. Also Piranhas will not attack you while riding it.

An absolute must on the island.

Sarcos are the best water mounts when you factor in accessibility (how easy it is to get) fast as an ichy in water and extremely strong , to tame, walk backwards while hitting with the club

Ps: doesn't fit through the first bottle neck turn in the lower south cave

They can lunge forward or death roll. But it does remove a lot of stamina so put some levels into that.

Fun Fact for ark mobile: it is very easy to tame sarco at lv 3 if you have a couple clubs you can stay around the middle of the sarco and keeping moving so you say in middle this is because on ark mobile the attacks only can hit you at the front and I would recommend staying in tween two of the legs for easiness and then just worry about having enough meat and narcoberies

Back away slowly while shooting tranqs at it then once their Torpor is high Put kibble or taming food in the inventory.

For all the new players It takes about some Tranq arrows bc I don’t know how many it takes but when it falls down don’t shoot it or you’ll kill it I gotta say DONT let it attack turtles unless it has high health melee damage etc also keep in mind these things are fast in water so I recommend you tame it on land then water

Definitely tame one they are so fast in the water they outrun A megaledon like nobody’s business

Fast swimmer early to end Game mount. Strong if its attack actually hits. Turn radious sucks however and doesn't take much to kill. If taming tame a higher level one.

Piranhas won't go near Sarcos, so crossing infested waters with own of these will keep you safe

tame these guys if you have access to sickle and a tranq arrows, Learned it in the hard way.

For beginners, don’t be super scared to tame it! I was nervous my first time trying, but it was honestly really easy. I hit it three times with a tranq arrow (on a crossbow) and it started to run and got stuck on a rock lol, then I just finished it off with my wooden club (my crossbow broke after three shot lmao). They are slow on land, so you can just shoot and run as long as there aren’t any other bad Dino’s around. Good luck!!

I have 3 Dilos and I killed 3 of these things

these are soooo easy to tame guys. Sure their bite packs a large punch, but literally on my second day I saw one and used a hatchet to get him low on health so he will run and a club. They are HORRIBLE turners so just sneak up one from behind and wack it. Slow tamers, but the tapor drops really slow so just get a bed and a lot of meat and sleep by him. I have done this. Btw if u have no meat and the topor is low give it narco berrys. They don’t eat them on it’s own but u can still shove some up it’s snout. Hope it works! Bye

The best thing to do when taming these things is to do hunt dilo pursuit. Get the ascendant bow and some tranq arrows. Then kill salmon and harvest with a sickle. Finally shoot the sarco with tranq arrows and feed it prime fish meat.

These guys can spawn near the beaches in south 2 on the island

Do not kill something in the water near a tamed sarco on aggression target, it will glitch the sarco to spin around in circles and will eventually pick you up and possibly crash your game. It’s cool though.

Why are these things so stupidly fast??

The ULTIMATE Dino team: island, mobile compatible too

Tanks: 3-5 sarcos, a therizno, and 2 brontos

Scouts: high level raptors, and mabey some sabbers

Attackers: 1giga, 2 spinos, and a Rex (if no giga spino is great sub)

Pursuits: (not on mobile) a small team of pegos with some itchy seagulls both are to drain supplies

Ariel team: idrk about aerials so I’m thinking a quiztle and some pteranodons and tappys canons attached and riders with bows

When attacking a op tribe with these dinos here is a good strategy:

Send the scouts to survey the camp, and report back. Send the aerials first, they will be kinda of wave 1/2 and will distract the op players and keep eyes mostly off the ground. Then send in the pursuits. They will rob most of the players out of their stuff and distract them. Now, start moving in the tanks and the attackers. Have the brontos break through any wall that keeps the others from getting in and then start demolishing the base. Have the raptors and sabers stay at the edge of the base to catch escapers. With this strat you will totally ruin someone’s day but become sooo op if u

win 🏆

If you see one DO NOT go in the water they are super fast swimmers
