I’ve tamed one of these guys with a club, all you need to do it run at its back legs, and go in a circle. They don’t really use there 180 turn.
Might sounds crazy (I know, it is actually crazy) ;
But the easiest way to kill it is to go for a swim
If you're on land, he would just bit you, and again and again
Even if you're on a small mount, the deathroll would dismount you, leaving your bloody body on side
When he's swimming, he'd keep going around with a huge turn radius, makes it easier to kill it
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.
They can swim fast enough to keep up with the raft. I build the back of my raft with stone foundations and walls for this reason.
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 :) 🐊
I tamed my first sarco with a couple of tranq arrows. You can use any meat, but prime meat is the best. I was able to tame mine with just regular meat.
For beginners wanting to tame this thing (before tranq arrows): I have found 4-6 slingshots and a ridiculous amount of stone is suitable enough to knock one of these guys out. Make sure to bait it out of the water long & far enough so once they start running they will be to far away. Making a small thatch trap is also useful as it will help you secure some more hits even though it will eventually break it. I have found this method to only be viable though with Level 50 and lower Sarcos but as a beginner tame they are ridiculously good.
Keep your distance when you see him and don’t go anywhere in the water remotely near to him! They are quick
