Sarco
2010 points   🔧 Utility       Report

Once upon a time, my Sarco and I were hunting some Megalodons for fish meat, when a pack of Cnidaria stung the both of us, I tried to swim to the shore but it's too late. Mantas and Megs attacked me and my Sarco. My Sarco tried to fight back, biting his opponents. I swam back to the shore, and... My Sarco never came back. His dead corpse was a feast for Mantas and Megalodons. I hold my fists, my mind thirst for revenge. Rifle in hand, I swam back, shooting every Megalodon and Mantas I see. It was a bloodbath, bodies of Megalodon and Mantas floating in the ocean. I avenged his death… My Sarco…

Rain pours down to the land. He left his beloved wife and son.

One like = One Sarco lives.

During my first 30 days of playing on my single player world, I was able to take 4 of these absolute beasts. We were UNSTOPPABLE. That was until an Alpha Megladon absolutely wrecked all four of them. Can I get an F for my boys

Ok most people say these big boys are for beginners but your wrong it’s the best guy for underwear mount it restores its stamina instantly under water it’s not good on land but put that puppy in the water you will love it 10/10

Single player uses:

1. Early game power dino: Sarcos are fairly strong and very easy to tame.

2. Taming mount: Sarcos are aster than they look, can turn on a dime and you can use a weapon while riding them.

3. Aquatic mount: They're even faster and more agile underwater, just beware there is a glitch where they instantly die if they go on land, though it's very rare so unlikely to happen.

Good mount to take into rivers and even the ocean. Good for hunting fish and I've even seen it beat a megladon. But never use it to fight a Rex because if things go south it is a very slow land mount. Short and sweet it is a hunting mount

I tamed a high level breeding pair and started breeding and now I have an army that evaporates alpha megs but immediately dies to any jellyfish

Four reasons they are useful

1: Fast in water

2: Can do barrel roll

3: Can breed than kill for skin for one of the bosses

4: Good attack

Two ways they aren’t useful

1: slow on land

2: Attacks are SOOO SSLLOOOWW…

Hope this helps pros and nerbs (funny way of saying noob) alike

They're really powerfull, I used to kill alpha rexes with them, I lured the alphas to the ocean (or any deep water) and start circulating and bitting them. Make sure to have a high level sarco while doing this.

TLC patch coming March 2018 adding "Deathroll" grab attack on small creatures and a grab attack (possibly thrash) on larger ones, gaining a 180 degree attack and a small lunge to its attack (maybe for deathroll purpose), will no longer aggo pirahnas and in the wild will sit with mouth gaped open awaiting prey.
