Me and my 2 dilos were chillin, and outta nowhere a Sarco came-only have 16 stone arrows and a master craft bow, and the Sarco can reach us on the rock I jumped on- one spear, I don’t know whether to fight it or..
Having trouble taming a sarco?
Here are some tips:
1. Find a large, open space with little to no other creatures around that will attack you or the sarco when unconscious.
2. Once you find a safe place, find a rock or a ledge that is high enough so the sarco can't reach you.
3. Use tranq arrows but check on the torpor and health ever other or every other 2 hits.
4. When the torpor gets high and the sarco starts running away, don't hit it with another tranq arrow unless the torpor starts to drop again. It should be unconscious within 8-10 seconds.
5. Once unconscious, tame with either prime meat or the preferred kibble and have at least 100 narco berries in the inventory.
How to tame: Step 1: Prepare yourself a Bow, Crossbow, Longneck Rifle, any weapon that is ranged. Step 2: Craft a tranquilizer arrow, Dart etc. A tranquilizer arrow can be unlocked in lvl 21 Step 3: Find a sarco and tranqulize the Sarco until unconscious Step 4: Get yourself some Raw meat or raw fish meat (I recommend prime fish meat or Triceratops kibble) then feed it Step 5 Congrats yourself getting a Sarco, Hope this helped :) 🐊
Must tame me and my friend tamed one and it made our life’s so much easier
Step 1: grind xp
Step 2: upgrade hp
Step 3: get prime meat
Step 4: get you fingers ready cuz you will experience a lot of clicking pain
step 3 brutaly punch the croc till it’s knocked out then feed prime meat
now enjoy the croc
(Pro tip: when punching croc try staying away from the mouth)
If you encounter a Sarco watch out for the death spin (I really mean it)
My first Dino was a Sarco. These things are beasts! Usually have lots of health, too!
I simply used a crossbow and toxic ant arrows, killed all the dodos and dilos in the area, and 15 mins later, slayed a carno with this guy.
It takes a long time to tame i would bring boi toxin just in case its a really great pet. I dont think bolas work on it.
These things are powerful and easy to take. Get some tranqs, a bow, crossbow, or even a slingshot (for low levels). On land you can outrun them so you can easy to knock out. Just run a bit, shoot a few tranqs/stones and repeat. Once you knock it out, you can feed it fish meat to get better taming than normal meat. Pump health and melee and you have a solid carnivore.
Battle Tip: Sarco 🐊
1. Don’t go near it’s mouth. If the sarco does a spin attack you will be suck in.
2. Lead it away from the water, if you are in the water may as well wait for your respawn cool down.
3. MAKE SURE ITS NOT NEAR YOUR TAMES!
one spawn that you will always find them at is in between the two snow mountains they get pretty big there
I was on my raft this dude came out of nowhere I was trying to find the engrams for the longbow he just layed there looking like he found a unicorn so my survival instincts killed him. ;) I’m trying to tame one. But I can’t.
Yo I’m sure like no one plays on Valguero but if y’all do…. WHERE DO I FIND ONE. THEY ARE LITERALLY ABSENT
Sarcosuchus can be found anywhere on the beach or the swamps.
Do not EVER attempt to knock out in the water. Sarcos are extremely quick and circle around you, making it difficult to get a hit in.
On land you can hit one with Tranq Arrows (take a number depending on the Level and your aim). Feed Sarcos fish meat for better results. Force-feed Narcotics or Biotoxin to keep their Tumor high.
It will take a bit of time, but taming a Sarcosuchus is in fact quite easy if your at least Level 21 and/or have access to Tranq Arrows. If you're using a Slingshot, find a Level 1 Sarco or good luck...
I finally had this guy knocked out or— girl. I put normal meat in and saw it only did 7 something %. I killed a nearby paracer and got a whopping 8 PRIME MEAT! (It’s a lot for me on mobile-) AT LEVEL 5! And I put two in but it counted 4.. so I’ll guess one piece can be eaten twice?
Only go near one its out of the water. Try to avoid them if you are a beginner. If one charges stay away from the water. It may seem slow, but it can lunge with shocking speed. Do not climb on a rock, it can lunge and bite you. Run away and stay on land. Sprinting helps.
