What are tips for sarco? Tips and strategies for sarco in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Tip for taming, if you wanna tame of of these first take a carbonemes and set it to “only attack unconscious” then have it distract the sarco while you club its tail or leg, if it aggros towards you run until it aggros the carbonemes again, repeat until it’s knocked out and feed it raw fish meat, I repeat, raw FISH meat, normal meat don’t work nearly as well when taming a sarco
I have just started on Abberation and tame as many low level sarcos as I could. I have 10 now and they melt through everything in seconds. Spinos just disappear and they killed an alpha karkinos without any dying. I would absolutely recommend taming a few of these early game.
TIP: To tame sarco don’t feed it normal meat or prime, FEED IT FISH any kind of fish meat
These things are super cool. They are extremely fast in water, gain stamina instantly in water, but are a little slow on land. They are super easy to tame.
Sarcos are actually really eassy tames, you can outrun them on land by foot, and they make great mounts (asides from raptor jumps) because if you get low, just go to the nearest body of water you can just zoom away to escape danger
PLEASE HELP ME IM A BIG NOOB So just right now after I was taming my lvl 2 parasaur called patrick I noticed a dumb but horrifying sarco that I was really nervous to encounter and fight was near my base which is a literal thatch hut and ima gonna have to do something except the problem is I don’t want to sacrifice my Patrick do help me fight he only has 200 health and a,so I don’t know if my two Dilos are gonna survive the dilo names are Diana and diago,Thay have somewhere about 100.health except I don’t think that’s enough help plus I don’t think they have enough good melee attack so I’m very worried I do have full cloth and I have some weapons one more problem is I’m only lvl 8 soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo SAVE THE NUBS LIKE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE AND OF COURSE OTHER NUUUBS
Even if you can't kill them, you can still escape one of any level by running. Even if you have no points in movement speed. Unless you're right beside their face. Then they'll kill you by lunge attack
Once you get a bow and arrows these guys are real easy to kill
Use fish meat instead of regular meat it works better if you don’t believe me check
These guys are incredibly underated! You can easily tame one using bow and some tranq arrows or even the club since you can circle around them and they'll not be able to hit you plus they're good for early to mid game as a combat tame and the speed on this guy is unreal in water!
these are actually mega useful even late game me and my friend had 3 follow us while we looked for sea games and they shredded most things even tusoteuthis! In the end they died to a alpha mosasaur…. but not until they had taken a third of its health. you can shoot off of them so they are super useful for taming
Easy tame trick, First get a bear trap (recommend 3 of them for good measure) next get fish meat or prime fish meat or kibble, then condition the area around the sarco, clear distractions like herbs etc. Then place the bear traps and lure the sarco to your location and after getting stuck shoot it with the weapon of choice and then feed it and POOF u got a sarcho, now get a deinosuchus. 😈
I used 100 meat and 50 narco berrys on my single player world lvl 10 on my pvp server I have 4 lvl 450s over all pretty eazy
If you see one of these, NEVER, i mean NEVER go into water, it will end your life like the Pompeii volcano.
How to tame one at a low level.
Step one: get on a steep rock so the sarco can’t climb onto it.
Step two: shoot it with tranqs.
Step three: (I would recommend to get kibble First. trike kibble)feed it.
Congrats you’ve gotten yourself a sarco!
