The Dino Study
I first encountered these things on a beach. Extremely dangerous when approached, easy to run away from. Do not escape by water, they will just swim after you.
The sarcos like to be where ever water is, and will hunt any thing they can bite into.
If your unlucky, you’ll spawn in one of their nesting sites (that’s a thing!) where over five sarcos are grouped together for a matter of time. They are extremely grumpy if encountered by a nest intruder, sp make sure you run and run and run (and run and run and RUN!).
Sarcos are easy to kill with spears or arrows since they don’t have the strongest melee.
Taming requires over five tranq arrows! Ver loyal when befriended!
You cannot outswim a Sarco. Period.
HOWEVER, you don't need to outswim a Sarco.
They swim too fast and are almost never able to position themselves correctly for a bite. So when swimming, just swim near the belly of the Sarco to escape with your life.
Fun Fact: Piranhas are afraid of Sarcos! They won’t attempt to come near you most of the time if you have a Sarco by your side.
If you desire to find these big crocs go to the swamp or you can find them near shallow waters or on beaches
These dudes moves slowly when walking but is a beast when running and swimming, the only problem with these guys is they can't target and attack well enough small creatures like piranhas, titanboas, raptors, etc.
To fight this fat giant amphibian lizard
Dance with him while punching his belly I’m sure you can tame it without anything but fist and meat with narcoberry
For beginners to tame it.spot it on low level at least below 15.
Make your movement speed 115 or+.
Get craft a slingshot and 50stones
Go and make him to spot you and run.
Make it come to land,go some distance from water.
And run and shoot. continue this.
If there is a pachy make the sarco to fight with pachy pachy and use slingshot to shoot. some times later it get torpur run and get down.(some times on your way there is some small dino like lystro of dodo cause of some glitch the little dino will not die that's your change)
Good for meat grinding and nothing else but over powered wen leveled up in combat easy to tame I guess good for traveling in water
How to tame a Sarco (for beginners, Preferbably easy mode)
1 Get a wooden club
2 Find sarco
3 Keep spinning and keep hitting it in the thighs.
You spin around with the sarco and keep hitting it until it gets knocked out
Now you hoave one
I found one at a river area there were two before but three trikes killed one but the river area was pretty far from my base and I also died to a raptor that I wanted to tame but when I came back the raptor was gone sadly I had tranq arrows but didn't have crossbows bc I was still lv24 ;-;so I had to wait till I got the crossbow then it was shooting time for the sarco but I hope it doesn't die to the trikes that killed the other one
SUPER GOOD! Okay I just want to say, this thing definitely isn’t as good as a spino, but it’s really easy to tame, 3 or 4 shots with a tranq arrow and you have it. It goes SUPER fast underwater and pretty fast on land and it does a lot of damage! My level 13 killed megalodons EASY! I lost my stuff at the bottom of the ocean and the sarco literally got me all the way down to get it back and got me all the way up again. It’s so good and definitely worth taming!
So…one day I has y’know gettin water and stuff then this sarco comes outta no where and hits me and then perfect reaction times my dodo comes over and attacks it and I had my 2 paras on passive so they didn’t attack and I ran to my house and see a very injured para (chad jr) and a massive tail then I see at the bottom the most tragic thing “dodo lvl 25 died to a sarco” then the sarco exploded and died (not really just launched in the air) and my lil lvl 2 dodo avenged her mother and she killed the sarco I picked up my deceased dodo and throw her in the ocean outside my base then I gather what’s left of the sarco and we’ll I just feed my para WHOS ON 27 HP BY THE WAY and sadly check the other dodo and para and feed them I put my paras beside a mountain outside my base and my dodo behind a big rock and there you have it my tragic story of how my dodo died to this BEAST OF A CREATURE and to be honest I’m scared of these things ark just makes them so realistic! R.I.P to dodo
Just put a dodo on a rock in the middle of a lake, they stand there trying to get it for hours, it’s a good farming/harvesting idea and it’s really funny to watch
I would suggest taming an itchy first because you can attack sharks with them and they won’t harm you and you get lots of fish meat. You can tame a sarcophagus with normal meat but they prefer fish meat and will tame faster with fish meat.
Post-TLC tamed, ridden Sarcos can now whip around and bite targets on their flanks. So much for that blind spot, eh?
Their right click lunging attack can also hit fliers flying way too close to the ground as well.
To tame this beast on mobile stay out of water I would recommend you use a crossbow and tranqs if possible use Sothing balm if not use fish meat
Just wanted to say thank you all I tamed my first sarco lol 34 named Rogue lol I got very lucky we will just say tht I screamed an dropped my controller 2 times thanks guys great community
