Sarco

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Sarco in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I got 4 Sarcos (one died, F for him) they're actually very easy to tame (in my opinion) you put them on a trap or simply attract them away from the water, then grab some narcotics as a precaution and use a rifle or a crossbow and grab some fish meat
Honestly, all you have to do is repeatedly shoot at it with tranq arrows from a rock or something. i’ve discovered they’re easy to shoot because they’re so long and big, and not good climbers. of course, slow on land too. if it’s a low level you need under ten tranq…
Honestly, all you have to do is repeatedly shoot at it with tranq arrows from a rock or something. i’ve discovered they’re easy to shoot because they’re so long and big, and not good climbers. of course, slow on land too. if it’s a low level you need under ten tranq arrows, but ofc if it’s higher i’d refer to more experienced players. just got my first one, super fast underwater for sure. hope this helps <3
When you are dying of hypothermia in the winter, you have 12 health left, and you hear heavy breathing and stomping behind you...
Just killed spin-off with Sam sarco (kill spinos in water Having infinite stamina is a boon
If youre on Simple difficulty,you only need around 20 tranq arrows. Farm around 40 fish meat,it shouldn't be hard. And find a ledge where the sarco cannot completely climb. While it is on the ledge,shoot tranq arrows. Congrats,youve knocked out a low level sarco.
If you’ve got one of these after you DO NOT go into a water source, learnt that the hard way
This is a glitch. Be careful going on land as sometimes the sarco takes a lot of “fall” damage. The longer your in the water the more damage your sarco takes. To me it only happened on that island in the redwoods. That’s not the only place though.
Give it some movespeed and maybe a little bit of health and you're good to go underwater for loot crate diving. Don't forget your GPS!

They are really slow so if you have good aim you can do it on the floor and they are really powerful so I recommend taming this guy
So I haven’t yet seen one in aberration but on the island there are easy tames. If you have a slingshot with enough rocks to knock it out your set. It’s slow on land so if you lead it out then your good. The players default speed is faster than it I’m pretty sure so…

Keep near back legs & hit with Pike. Their turn is terrible.
If you are looking for an easy way to tame these early game. Get it to aggro on you, dodge the chomp as it comes for you and then go to one of it's back legs. As it tries to spin to get you, follow it's back legs and punch, tranq or club it until it goes unconscious🌟

As I was body guarding my mate who was building a trap for a baryonx in a fairly dangerous area with my trusty sarco named Lamin I decided it was a good idea to make some bolas cuz we had just got jumped by a pack of raptors and we used all of our bolas so as I’m collecting the last of the fiber I get jumped by 1 troodon who was able to knock me out but lamin jumped into action and saved the day my takeaway is to always keep a pet sarco near you at all times.
Guys if you tame these do not engage with jellyfish they will kill it I’m taming my second one right now
Ok guys, problem… I was feeding my sarcos (Jade, Tar, and Fungus) when I get a ‘YOU HAVE ENTERED A DANGEROUS AREA’ message. I live in a area with Literally NO danger creatures other than sarcos. So ya. I go onto capture mode and I see a sarco. Well I guess I’m getting a…

-Sarco master
Tamed one of these bad boys in my way to tame a baronyx. Came home with two new great tames. The Sarco, named Gatorade. The Baronyx, named Barry. Both are green, grey, and white males.
Definitely one of the best underrated games in the game they are great for diving for pearls but can be stored on land they don't need oxygen, they can go into caves and enter the underwater bubble and you can easily tame it by aggro-ing it out of swamp, the kibble needed…
Definitely one of the best underrated games in the game they are great for diving for pearls but can be stored on land they don't need oxygen, they can go into caves and enter the underwater bubble and you can easily tame it by aggro-ing it out of swamp, the kibble needed is also really easy to get and I got my 130 kibble tamed by collecting eggs on the beach
How to tame a sarco:
A sarco is a big crocodile that lurks in southern coasts, swamps, and rivers. It wil leap out of nowhere and it drops prime.
Materials:
A hundred arrows or so use crossbow or high percentage bow. Don’t waste darts.

How to tame a sarco:
A sarco is a big crocodile that lurks in southern coasts, swamps, and rivers. It wil leap out of nowhere and it drops prime.
Materials:

A character and some ark safari tame experience.
How to tame:
1. Find sarco on land.
2. Lead it on land. In water they become Rexes to bobs.
3. Shoot tranqs on its face. Don’t get jumpscared by other Dinos especially kapros and boas.
4. Tame with FISH meat or PRIME.
5. Make an oddly costly saddle for this easily tamed bad boy.
Utility:
Defense: they do great dmg and are easy tames.
Hunting: slow on land, they have dps and insta turn on their side.
Water travel: in water they are FAST fast.
Alpha killer (aquatic): can kite alpha megs and if done with caution I BELIEVE BUT NOT SURE I think a bred and imprinted good level sarco can take on bigger threats, including caves I guess.
Enjoy your sarco!
